Dear Friends, As you know, we recently announced a campaign to build our capacity for the future. And I am pleased to tell you that we have received an enthusiastic response from individuals, businesses, corporations and foundations eager to assure that the Nine Network continues to succeed.

These contributors know that we not only connect our region with the world through outstanding programs but also serve as a vital community resource and as a catalyst for local partnerships that make the St. Louis area an even better place to live, work, create and raise children.

Children have always been at the heart of public television. Our children’s programs are unparalleled and the resources we provide to schools and families are extensive. But we need to do more. Many of our children face unimaginable challenges that affect their mental well-being, their ability to succeed in school and their ability to become productive adults. That is why we have undertaken two important initiatives on behalf of our children and young people: Youth at Risk and American Graduate: Let’s Make It Happen. Nearly 50 local agencies have already joined us in these

initiatives and are as determined as we are to achieve results that will improve young lives and the welfare of our region.

Now, I want to ask you to help us achieve the best possible outcomes for our children and our community. You, our members, clearly realize the importance of individual contributions to the Nine Network. You can help us expand our base of individual support by encouraging others to become members, by making additional contributions, and by making planned gifts or bequests. If you have already made a bequest, please be sure to let us know. And, of course, if you would like to participate in the work of the Nine Network as a volunteer we would be happy to have you.

Thank you for being part of the Nine Network.

Yours truly,

Jack Galmiche President and CEO Nine Network of Public Media

Amazing AncestORS Finding Your Roots With Henry Louis Gates Jr. searches out unknown ancestors of well-known Americans.

A

ctors Kevin Bacon, Kyra Sedgwick, Samuel L. Jackson and Robert Downey Jr., comedians Margaret Cho and Wanda Sykes and musicians John Legend and Branford Marsalis are among the celebrities whose ancestors provide the mysteries researched in Finding Your Roots, a new series from renowned cultural critic and Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr. The basic drive to discover who we are and where we come from is at the core of the 10-part Finding Your Roots With Henry Louis Gates Jr., the 12th series from Gates, the Alphonse Fletcher University Professor at Harvard University and director of the W.E.B. Du Bois Institute for African and African American Research. Filmed on location across the United States, the series premieres on March 25.

“Finding Your Roots will be a moving, uplifting, entertaining and enlightening experience for viewers,” says Gates.

“Genealogy is more popular than ever, but it’s far more than a solitary pastime. It’s a fascinating endeavor that can drastically alter both history and the way we think of ourselves.”

Continuing on the quest begun in his previous projects, African American Lives (2006), African American Lives 2 (2008) and Faces of America (2010), Gates finds new ways to, as he says, “get into the DNA of American culture.” In each hourlong episode, he takes one celebrity pair bound together by an intimate, sometimes hidden link, treks through layers of ancestral history, uncovers secrets and surprises of their family trees and shares life-altering discoveries.

Guest pairings include: New Orleans jazz masters and close friends Harry Connick Jr. and Branford Marsalis, whose European immigrant ancestors made very different choices nineNet.org

in the slave-era South; spiritual leaders Angela Buchdahl, Yasir Qadhi and Rick Warren, whose ancestors’ paths to America were shaped by religious convictions; and education superstar Geoffrey Canada and media legend Barbara Walters, who both rediscover family histories long obscured by forgotten name changes.

In other episodes, public servants Condoleezza Rice and Congressman John Lewis, featured in different hours, trace their contemporary-day strength to enslaved ancestors, and actor Robert Downey Jr. marvels at the vastness of his family tree dating back to the 13th century. Gates travels with his guests throughout the series, sharing the details of ancestral stories and helping process what they’ve learned.

He accompanies musician John Legend to a rock concert, goes backstage on Broadway with Samuel L. Jackson, joins Newark, New Jersey, Mayor Cory Booker as he reveals the root-seeking results to his parents, and trails CNN chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta to a memorable family reunion.

Also included are family histories of actor Kevin Bacon and his actress wife Kyra Sedgwick, comedian Margaret Cho, Lost actress Michelle Rodriguez, comedian and actress Wanda Sykes, Brown University president Ruth Simmons and stylish living personality Martha Stewart.

Working closely with leading U.S. genealogists (including staff of the New England Genealogical Historical Society and Johni Cerny, co-author of The Source: Guidebook for American Genealogy) and ancestry experts from around the world, Gates and his production team comb through family stories to discover unknown histories and relatives the guests never knew existed. When paper trails end for each story, the team turns to top geneticists and DNA diagnosticians (such as the genetic testing service 23 & Me) to analyze each participant’s genetic code, tracing their bloodlines and occasionally debunking their long-held notions and beliefs. ris Kla Lor in

Reaching beyond celebrity stories, Gates also seeks out everyday individuals (on-air and online) who are wrestling with questions of identity. He visits with employees at his favorite barber shop and engages Harlem students who are curious about their genetics.

Rahoul Ghose/PBS

The Finding Your Roots website (pbs.org/wnet/findingyour-roots) offers video from the series, a blog from Gates, material from the production team and the scientists who conducted research for the series, and a comprehensive list of resources that viewers can use to learn more about their own genealogy.

Nine Networking Arts Awards Since 1992, the Arts and Education Council’s St. Louis Arts Awards have recognized contributions made to the arts by individuals and organizations.

This year’s seven honorees are featured in the hour-long special Party: 2012 St. Louis Arts Awards, broadcast Friday, March 2 at 9:00 p.m. on Nine PBS. The festivities, held January 23 at the Chase Park Plaza Hotel, for the first time included performances by three of the honorees. Party: 2012 St. Louis Arts Awards highlights segments from all.

The other honorees noted in the special are Novus International, Inc. (Corporate Support of the Arts), the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis (Excellence in the Arts), Joan Lipkin (Arts Innovator) and Mabel Dorn Reeder Foundation, Dr. Mabel L. Purkerson, co-trustee (Excellence in Philanthropy).

Magic Number: 2,000 The Nine Network proudly boasts the largest per capita viewership of all PBS stations. In other words, a greater percentage of people in metropolitan St. Louis watch Nine than do the people in the viewing areas of PBS stations in any other market in the country. Percentage-wise, St. Louis wins over New York City, Chicago, Miami and Los Angeles.

If only all of those viewers were members of the Nine Network!

Although our viewership is high, our membership is below average.

Unfortunately, even though many people watch Nine, not enough of our viewers help support the programming they love.

It’s just not right. For example, 60,000 St. Louisans tuned in for the premiere of Downtown Abbey, yet Nine’s total membership is approximately 30,000.

Clearly thousands of those viewers are not members, and frankly, we’d love to have them join us.

Between now and the end of June, in on-air spots featuring Nine’s Patrick Murphy, we are asking for your help to boost our membership rolls by 2,000. Help us spread the word about the value of becoming a member of the most-watched PBS station in the country. It’s our hope that the most-watched can become the mostsupported, too.

A-student sophomore at Metro High School initially decided to volunteer to satisfy community service hours for school. She chose Nine because of her fond memories of watching PBS’ children’s shows when she was younger, and so she could learn more about careers in broadcasting, an interest she may want to pursue in college.

She keeps coming back, Brooks says, because “everyone is very friendly and attentive. There is a peaceful environment and I enjoy learning new things on each visit. [Volunteer and Membership Manager] Brittany Farmer and other employees definitely show their appreciation for all of their volunteers. Also, by volunteering I became aware of other opportunities, for instance, Nine’s digital storytelling class that I really enjoyed.”

As a volunteer, Brooks has transcribed videos, assisted with mailings, organized storage space and worked in Nine’s booth at the St. Louis Art Fair.

Thanks to her small size, she’s even been recruited to wear one of the notoriously tiny kids-show character costumes for an event. During the summer, she volunteers weekly; when school is in session, she comes in when needed. She has plenty of other activities to keep her busy: maintaining her “A” average at school, playing basketball, participating in track, or taking part in a technology and entrepreneurship program.

Brooks’ enthusiasm for volunteering at Nine is infectious. She’s recruited her friends and cousins at various times and even involved her parents—dad Keith, a director at St. Louis Cardinals Care, and mom Angela, a consultant— to make volunteering at the Nine Network a family affair.

Individual performances showcase the musical talent of the six soloists (13-year-old Daniel Furlong joins the group as a guest artist for this special).

Nine to Grow On Retirement Planning The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today and many other publications turn to Ed Slott as an authority on managing personal finances. The money expert, who has written five bestsellers, returns to Nine PBS on Monday, March 12 at 8:30 p.m. with a new special, Ed Slott’s Retirement Rescue!

With clear, practical explanations of the decisions you have to make to create personal wealth and enjoy retirement on your own terms, Slott defines the monumental fiscal problems facing Americans and provides a step-by-step

solution to creating a plan of action. He uses the “Slott formula” of humor, personal stories and detailed facts from the tax code to make his points.

Slott discusses how to avoid the “Five Silent Retirement Killers”: taxes, risk, saving money, uncertainty and inactivity.

Taxes, says Slott, are the single biggest obstacle standing between you and your retirement money. Risk is inevitable, but can be dealt with through proper planning. Saving

“ Taxes, says Slott, are the single

biggest obstacle standing between you and your retirement money. ”

money costs money if you don’t stash your cash in the right place. Uncertainty, that is, not knowing how or what to invest, leads to the final retirement killer, doing nothing at all.

Slott shows how to win by not losing so you can rescue your retirement right now and proves that you are in control of your retirement dreams.

Ed Slott will help you retire with more money.

The Cat-in-the-Hat-a-Thon Seventy-five years ago when Theodor Seuss Geisel published his first children’s book, And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street, he guaranteed for decades the literacy of children drawn to reading by his silly rhymes and captivated by his happy colors. Simply by being born, Dr. Seuss gave kids another reason to celebrate. Every year, the National Education Association (NEA) selects March 2, Seuss’ birthday, for their annual Read Across America day.

Nine PBS joins Dr. Seuss’ 108th birthday party on Friday, March 2 at 7:00 a.m. by broadcasting The Cat-in-the-Hat-aThon, a two-hour marathon of four episodes of The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That! Two brand-new episodes are part of the marathon: Seasons—Spring and Summer/Fall and Winter and When I Grow Up/Doing It Differently. Grab a party hat and lift a glass of morning orange juice with us to celebrate reading, Dr. Seuss and The Cat.
