“How does public broadcasting remain relevant in 2007 and beyond? Maybe by bringing back that sense of community, by bringing us together. If we are going to survive in this digital era, we cannot be static, passive, and rigid. We must become interactive, portable, and experiential.”

Dear Members,As I reflect on the past year, I see snapshots of faces—all ages, colors, and creeds—people who experienced our programming in new ways. In 2006, WTTW11 and 98.7WFMT devoted moretime and resources than ever before to connecting with our community. With the goal of using our quality content to enrich and enhance the lives of our audience, we created more than 100 educational and entertaining events over the past 12 months.

We made a concerted effort to strengthen our personal relationships with our viewers andlisteners by assessing their needs and interests, using our talent and broadcasting resources toaddress issues that were important to them.

Why the intensified focus on community? After all, our commitment to localism has been rocksolid for more than 50 years. But times have changed, and we need to do more.

As part of our Early Learning Initiative, we conducted 40 workshops for teachers, parents, andcaregivers, designed to help them better use television as a literacy and get-ready-for-school tool. And we held fundraising events that allowed our television and radio audiences to see, feel,taste, and better understand the programs they love—including Taste of Check, Please! and the 3rd Annual WTTWKids Fun and Run in Lincoln Park. On the radio side, we launched a new series of intimate Sunday afternoon concerts in Levin Studio, while continuing our tradition of showcasingpromising new artists.

In today’s frenetic media world, it is increasingly difficult to create a sense of community.Remember the days when your family gathered around your 800-pound RCA black-and-white television—the only one in the house—with three channels and no remote. Were you going to watchBonanza or The Judy Garland Show? You had to choose—and you knew that millions of Americanswere having the same viewing experience at the same time. Look at us today—with 500 cable channels, we’re programming our own personal media networks. We are consuming content at our convenience. And our kids? They are gobbling up media on their computers, iPods and cell phones.

So how does public broadcasting remain relevant in 2007 and beyond? Maybe by bringingback that sense of community, by bringing us together. If we are going to survive in this digital era,we cannot be static, passive, and rigid. We must become interactive, portable, and experiential.

In closing, I want to thank our tireless Board of Trustees for all their support and contributions,and express gratitude to the individuals, foundations, and corporations who have been so generous to public television and classical radio. Take comfort and pride in knowing that you havenot only supported the best television and radio has to offer, but enriched the lives of millions ofothers in your community.

Stay tuned,

Dan Schmidt, President & CEO
