4 | A Word From GPB CEO, Teya Ryan Dear GPB Donor, I hope you’ll join us this month as we journey to an Australian cattle ranch, the “horse country” of Georgia, and inside the mind of one of America’s most celebrated authors. We kick off the month with a great addition to our Thursday night line-up of dramas with McLeod’s Daughters, the popular Australian series that follows life on a ranch run by two sisters and their all-female crew. Next, although Earth Day is officially celebrated on April 22, every day is Earth Day for Georgia Outdoors host and producer Sharon Collins. She’s bringing us three new episodes this month: “Horse Country,” “Urban Coyotes” and “Wildfire.” And, I can’t think of anyone better than acclaimed filmmaker Ken Burns to produce the six-part series Hemingway, the story of the genius and struggles of Ernest Hemingway, who crafted some of the greatest works in American literature. As you listen to GPB Radio in the coming days, you’ll hear us reminding you of the importance of your support. While we keep the number of days we fundraise on the air to a minimum, our Spring Radio Fund Drive is a critical time for GPB. I hope you will tune in to learn about ways you can engage with us and encourage your friends and colleagues to join you in showing their support during the campaign. Your support makes it possible for GPB to provide programs and resources that make a difference in the communities we serve across the state and beyond. Thank you. With gratitude, Teya Ryan

“Hemingway is both an intimate, turbulent family saga and an examination of some of the greatest works of American literature in the 20th century.”

“Hemingway is both an intimate, turbulent family saga and an examination of some of the greatest works of American literature in the 20th century,” said director Ken Burns. “The documentary attempts to go beyond prevailing assumptions about Ernest Hemingway and his writing. At the same time, we are unsparing in our inquiry into less well-known aspects of his character and writing. Our intent is to offer viewers an honest portrayal of a complex and conflicted writer who left an indelible mark on literature.”

GPB EXTRA GEORGIA OUTDOORS’ SHARON COLLINS MAKES EARTH DAY EVERY DAY
Sharon Collins, Executive Producer and host of Georgia Outdoors. Since 1970, people around the world have marked Earth Day on April 22 as a time that encourages greater appreciation of our planet’s inhabitants and resources. For Georgia Outdoors executive producer, host and writer Sharon Collins, every day is Earth Day. She first captivated viewers in 2010 with the episode “Herons and Heroes” after taking over production of the series, and in the years that have followed, she’s led the audience on a journey from the state’s mountaintops to remote islands and everywhere in between. Collins has also featured an assortment of creatures on the program, including the aforementioned herons, as well as bats, lemurs, loggerhead turtles, chimpanzees, deer and bears.
“I was digging sand out of my ears for a week.”
– Sharon Collins
With every episode, Collins’ passion for the topic matter is evident, and from early on, her love for covering nature would help shape her career path. After starting out in radio, Collins’ first professional experience in television was at the Roanoke/Lynchburg ABC affiliate, where she initiated a campaign called “Project Environment.” From there, Collins parlayed her local television experience into a position with CNN and served as a host/correspondent for programs including “Network Earth” and “Earth Matters.” She also worked on projects through her own production company before joining GPB. encore
gpb.org
| 13
Now looking back at 12 years of producing the Emmy-winning series, Collins chokes up a bit when asked what it is about the program that continues to bring meaning to her. She relays a particular experience that took place during filming on the beach at Ossabaw Island for the episode “Loggerheads: An Epic Journey.” “Who gets to be on their belly next to a loggerhead turtle as she’s covering her eggs after she’s gone all over the ocean?,” said Collins. “Who gets to do stuff like that? I was digging sand out of my ears for a week. But you know, I’ve just gotten so many experiences. I just want more.”
Luckily for viewers wanting more, three new episodes premiere this month: “Horse Country” - Thursday, April 15, 7:30 PM In “Horse Country,” Collins explores the importance of horses to Georgia’s culture and economy, revealing that the industry is one of the top 10 commodities in Georgia according to the department of agriculture.
“Wildfire” - Thursday, April 22, 7:30 PM “Wildfire” features Georgia firefighters who helped fight the 2020 wildfires in Oregon and California that burned millions of acres and discusses concerns about more potential wildfires in Georgia, such as the one in the Cohutta Wilderness area that burned about 28,000 acres.
“Urban Coyotes” - Thursday, April 29, 7:30 PM “Urban Coyotes” examines the biology of coyotes through the story of Carmine, who gained international fame for his exploits trying to befriend dogs in Cobb County, just outside the city of Atlanta.
