How long have you worked in public media? Seven years. When people ask me what it’s like to work in public media, I always say that it’s great because the unspoken ethos in this industry is to work hard and be nice to people. It’s been really rewarding to work hard alongside people who care so deeply about this mission. Where did you work before you came to WFIU and WTIU and what was your job there? I’m coming to WFIU and WTIU from Iowa Public Radio, where I served as Membership Manager. In my time with the statewide NPR member station, I managed our sustaining giving program, pledge drives, vehicle donations, direct mail, hundreds of events, and collaborations with the newsroom and our underwriting and major giving teams. I was also known for creating some cool station swag. Tell us about your new role at WFIU and WTIU and what you’re looking forward to working on. I’m excited to be joining the station as Director of Development and look forward to cultivating meaningful relationships with donors. It’s a real joy for me to connect listeners and viewers to what their contributions can do. At my last station, I got to know every person on staff because understanding the ins and outs of the organization was key to telling a true and convincing story of the difference support dollars can make. Describe your vision for the new development team. I look forward to building upon the successes of the fundraising teams here by shaping a cohesive development strategy, building trusted relationships, and fostering a culture of collaboration. What are your favorite PBS and NPR shows? Did you have a favorite PBS show as a kid?

On the TV side, I love PBS NewsHour with Judy Woodruff. My kids are big fans of Wild Kratts and love to impress me with fun facts from that show (did you know sloths pee just once a week? So efficient!). I was a huge Sesame Street fan as a kid. My favorite NPR shows are Morning Edition and This American Life. What do you like to do outside of work? I’m a big fan of being outdoors, and I’m leaning into enjoying the more temperate climate in the Bloomington area. This winter in Iowa I cross-country skied in a blizzard for the first time, but my typical time outside of work is spent hiking, cycling, gardening, and seeking out good food, usually with my spouse and two kids along for the ride.

Making jam is easier than you might think—especially with berries since they don’t require much preparation. Taking the extra step of canning the jam makes it shelf-stable, and it only takes a bit more time and know-how. This recipe uses Pomona’s Pectin, which does not require the massive amounts of sugar that regular pectin (such as Sur-jel) does. It allows the flavor of the fruit to really shine. You can find Pomona’s locally at Bloomingfoods or order it online. The box includes detailed instructions for all kinds of jams, including freezing and canning methods.
EarthEats.org
Strawberry Jam 4 cups mashed fresh strawberries (you can use other berries, but check the Pomona’s instruction sheet for the specific recipes. Some call for lemon juice) 1-2 cups of sugar 2 teaspoons Pomona’s Pectin 2 teaspoons calcium water (made with 1/2 teaspoon of calcium powder—included in Pomona’s Pectin—and 1/2 cup water in a small jar. Shake to combine, store in the fridge) If canning, you will also need the following: 5 half-pint canning jars, with two-part canning lids (the flat lid part needs to be new, the rings can be reused) Large stock pot, with lid Round wire rack to fit into the bottom of the pan (keeps the jars off of the bottom) Jar lifter, or sturdy tongs Canning jar funnel (optional) Ladle Small cloth made of t-shirt material (to wipe the rims of the jars after filling) Kitchen towel and potholders
To can the jam (boiling water bath method): Before starting anything, place a wire cake cooling rack in the bottom of a large deep pot. Fill about halfway with water, and add 5 clean 1/2-pint canning jars. Bring to a boil. Remove jars when jam is ready, keep the water hot/near boiling. Ladle the hot jam into hot jars leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe rims and place new canning lids on top. Seal with metal rings (finger tight) and carefully place into the pot of boiling water. Make sure water covers the tops of the jars when all jars are placed in the pot. Bring water back to a boil, and once boiling, set a timer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, remove jars to a cooling rack or towel using tongs or a jar lifter. When jars are completely cool, and canning lids are sealed, remove rings, and wipe down the outside of the jar. Label and include date. If the fruit seems to be separating, you can gently shake the jars during the cooling time, once the jars have sealed. You may need to do this a few times. Note: Boiling water bath canning is only suitable for fruits and highly acidic products such as pickles. If you are canning vegetables that are not pickled with vinegar, then you must use a pressure canning method or run the risk of contamination with botulism. Always consult with a University Extension program for canning recipes and procedures. Their information is backed by research.
To prepare the jam: Rinse the fruit and remove strawberry hulls. Mash berries (rough chopping can help with this) and measure 4 cups. Heat mashed strawberries in a stainless steel pan over medium-high heat. Stir in 2 teaspoons of calcium water. As the fruit softens, mash it more and bring mashed fruit to a boil. Meanwhile, mix the sugar with the pectin in a bowl. Add to boiling fruit, stirring quickly and vigorously, to avoid any lumps. Bring to a boil again, then remove from heat. Using a ladle and jar funnel, pour the jam into clean jars and refrigerate. To make the jars of jam shelf-stable, use a boiling water bath canning process (next column).

Giving Life Insurance to Charitable Causes
This month on American Masters: Waterman – Duke: Ambassador of Aloha
Life insurance can be a tool with many purposes. When your children were young, you may have purchased a policy to provide them with financial protection in case something should happen to you or your spouse.
Five-time Olympic medalist Duke Kahanamoku shattered records as a swimmer and brought surfing to the world while overcoming rampant racism in a lifetime of personal challenges. American Masters: Waterman – Duke: Ambassador of Aloha explores his life, career, and struggles with prejudice. As a dark-skinned Pacific Islander, Kahanamoku broke through racial barriers with athletic accomplishments before Joe Louis, Jesse Owens, and Jackie Robinson; yet relatively few outside of Hawaii know the details of his inspiring story and considerable impact. Narrated by Jason Momoa (Aquaman, Game of Thrones, Dune), this new documentary reveals Kahanamoku’s influence on surfing’s global spread, his life-saving achievements, and the obstacles he conquered both within and outside the sporting world.
Perhaps your circumstances have now changed. Many donors own whole life insurance policies they no longer need for family security. If so, consider one of the most satisfying uses for life insurance you no longer need— donating it to a cause dear to your heart, such as WFIU.

The documentary presents Kahanamoku’s rise to fame and how he became the face of a changing Hawaii as it evolved from an isolated island kingdom to a multi-ethnic American paradise, using rare archival footage, contemporary visuals, and new interviews with Laird Hamilton (big wave surfer), Kelly Slater (11-time world uk e e cr in to champion surfer), Carissa Moore (Olympic surfing Ho l ly w o o d - P h o gold medalist), Jack Johnson (musician), David Davis (author, Waterman), Moses Goods (playwright and actor, Duke), Dr. Isaiah Helekunihi Walker (author, Waves of Resistance), Fred Hemmings (world champion surfer), Kelia Moniz (world champion surfer), Kai Lenny (big wave surfer), and others. After his appearance in the 1924 Olympics, Kahanamoku began dabbling in Hollywood and started to appear in movies by 1925. Unlike other Olympic champions who went on to further glory by starring in blockbusters, Kahanamoku’s dream of playing Tarzan in the movies never materialized. Instead, the role went to his friend and Olympic swimming rival Johnny Weissmuller. Though he represented Pacific Islanders in minor Hollywood roles, Kahanamoku became best known as the “Ambassador of Aloha” playing a vital role in supporting the burgeoning tourist industry.

When you choose to name a charitable organization as the policy owner and beneficiary, you may qualify for an income tax charitable deduction. To complete your future gift, contact your insurance company and request their beneficiary designation form. It is entirely separate from your will and does not require a lawyer. Not only is it an easy way to give, but it's flexible—you can review and adjust beneficiary designations and percentages anytime. That being said, it is always wise to consult a trusted advisor. For more information on making a beneficiary designation gift, contact the IU Foundation Office of Gift Planning at (800) 558-8311 with any questions about gift opportunities at WFIU. For more information on how to support WFIU into the future, go to wfiu.org/support and look at the many options.

Jazz Notes
Our Friday-evening vocal jazz program Afterglow takes a look this month at singer Peggy Lee’s 1960s recordings, standards sung by doo-wop and R&B performers, the songs of composer Jimmy McHugh, and a travelogue twist on the Great American Songbook. Night Lights, which follows Afterglow at 9 p.m., delves deeper into jazz recordings made by US artists who toured internationally on behalf of the State Department during the Cold War era, as well as music from the turbulent year of 1968, and the vibrant late-1970s jazz roster of Columbia Records.

As May bridges the seasons from spring to summer, our weekday afternoon jazz program Just You & Me will feature some significant new historical releases, including live performances by bassist/composer Charles Mingus from the 1970s and trumpeter Chet Baker from the early 1980s. You can also hear new releases from modern jazz artists highlighted every Monday on Just You & Me, while Indiana artists past and present get marquee treatment every Thursday.

Memorial Day falls unusually late this year, on Monday, May 30. In honor of the holiday, Just You & Me will feature new recordings that afternoon from the US military band The Airmen of Note, joined by guest artists trumpeter Sean Jones, saxophonist/flutist Ted Nash, and vocalist Diane Schuur. (The Airmen of Note’s origins trace back to Glenn Miller’s legendary World War II armed forces big band.)
