This pandemic has put a real dent in my social life. I babysit my younger niece and nephew a couple of times a month on weekends. They are a handful, but this is one way I pay it forward. My true guilty pleasure is watching animated movies, thrillers, and anything with Melissa McCarthy in it.

Dear Friends, The contributions of the women on our team are immeasurable. I celebrate these women and all the women who have paved the way for gender equality. It has been my honor to be the first woman to lead this organization. I could never have imagined a global pandemic during my first year as president and CEO. Even though we are isolated from each other, we’re still working together to respond to the needs of our community—and to you. Our team continues to keep you informed, find new voices to represent the full breadth of experiences in our community, and we even launched our new brand—all while working remotely. I’m as eager as anyone to get back to normal, but, for now, Nine PBS will keep doing what we do best—telling stories that move us on mutiple platforms: on air, streaming live, on demand, and our social media channels. We’ll keep producing Donnybrook, Donnybrook Next Up, Living St. Louis, and long- and short-form specials, with added safety precautions amid the coronavirus. We’ll partner to bring you hyperlocal content like Black Artists’ Group: Creation Equals Movement,
America's Last Little Italy: The Hill, and Papa Ray’s Vintage Vinyl Roadshow. We’ll continue to support at-home learning for families and kids without reliable internet or digital devices through our on-air classroom, Teaching in Room 9. Earlier this year, we launched the Raymond H. Wittcoff Community Engagement Fellowship to enable three part-time fellows to expand relationships with schools in the most challenged communities. Ray passed away at the age of 96 in 2018 and was the last surviving founder of Nine PBS. We honor his memory by carrying on his legacy of community commitment and innovation. Our 2020 Annual Report summarizes our work during the height of the pandemic. Find it at ninepbs.org/reports. Stay tuned for great programming, including a new documentary on the legendary writer Ernest Hemingway, with surprising connections to St. Louis. Best,

Hemingway
at his most romantic and most vulnerable
“In an era when Americans are re-evaluating so many icons, Hemingway is a particularly compelling figure to revisit." —Lynn Novick, director
The film looks into less well-known aspects of Hemingway's character and writing (shown here at his home in Cuba in the late 1940s).
E rnest Hemingway, the
iconic literary figure considered one of the greatest American writers and among the first to live and work at the treacherous nexus of art and celebrity, is the subject of a three-part, six-hour documentary series directed by award-winning filmmakers Ken Burns and Lynn Novick.
figure. The film also explores Hemingway’s limitations and biases as an artist and a man of his time. Hemingway interweaves a close study of the biographical events of the author’s life with excerpts from his fiction, nonfiction, and short stories, informed by interviews with celebrated writers, scholars, and Hemingway’s son, Patrick. The filmmakers explore the painstaking process through which Hemingway created some of the most important works of fiction in American letters.
The documentary paints an intimate picture of Hemingway the writer—who captured on paper the complexities of the human condition in spare and “Hemingway is both an intimate, profound prose and whose work turbulent family saga and an remains deeply influential around examination of some of the greatest the world—while also penetrating works of American literature in the the myth of Hemingway as a 20th century,” says director Ken Burns. man’s man to reveal a deeply “The documentary attempts to show troubled and ultimately tragic how flawed our assumptions about 4

Ernest Hemingway and his writing have been. At the same time, we are unsparing in our inquiry into less wellknown 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.” “In an era when Americans are reevaluating so many icons, Hemingway is a particularly compelling figure to revisit," says director Lynn Novick. "He was hugely complicated, deeply flawed, and he truly revolutionized the art of writing. One of the great revelations of this project was asking renowned writers from around the world...to share their insights into Hemingway's work and why it’s still important today.”
F E AT U R E
From left: Ernest Hemingway with his first wife, Hadley Richardson, in Switzerland, 1922; with second wife, Pauline Pfeiffer, taken on their wedding day in Paris, 1927; with his third wife, Martha Gellhorn, on board the SS Matsonia arriving in Hawaii during a trip to China in 1941.
The St. Louis Women He Loved Ernest Hemingway “loved being in love,” the writer Michael Katakis says in the film. He married four times over the course of his tumultuous life and had three sons. Three of the women were from St. Louis: Hadley Richardson, Pauline Pfeiffer, and Martha Gelhorn. The 15-year marriage to his last wife, Mary Welsh, born in Walker, MN, was the longest. In 1959, the couple settled in Ketchum, ID. His relationships with women—his mother, sisters, wives, and the World War I nurse who broke his heart—profoundly affected his work. Yet for all his bravado and hyper-masculine posturing, Hemingway
Ways to Watch
wrote about relationships between men and women with sensitivity, nuance, and clarity. As writer Edna O’Brien says on camera, he was able to put himself “inside the skin” of the other and give voice to women’s deepest emotions. In three two-hour episodes, Hemingway tracks the meteoric rise and tragic fall of the author who, in his final years, suffered from chronic alcoholism, serious mental illness, traumatic brain injuries, and depression. In 1961, at the age of 61, Hemingway died by suicide, leaving behind an unparalleled body of artistic work and a complicated emotional legacy for those closest to him.

HAPPENING NOW
Host of The Finder Dies Sonny Fox, the host of children’s television, talk shows, and game shows, producer, and network executive, died of COVID-19-related complications on January 24 in Encino, CA. He was 95. Fox was the host of our first after-school program for children, The Finder, in 1954. Fox, the "finder," traveled the area in a Corvette searching for stories of interest to young people. Fox was a broadcast pioneer who always remembered his pubic television roots in St. Louis. He said his lifetime’s work in television was spent trying to answer the question, “How do you use the power of television for more than just selling product?”
Sonny Fox’s The Finder epitomized education television; it mixed fun and learning.
Nine PBS is Committed to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion We understand the importance of our role as a trusted, community-licensed public media organization to amplify voices that reflect the experiences of all people across our region.
We believe that to understand each other’s experiences, we must have honest—and sometimes difficult—conversations. Our values guide our actions.
We view diversity as the characteristics and attributes that make each of us unique. Diversity is multidimensional. We believe that the collective identities of our race, gender, physical ability, national origin, religion, veteran status, sexual orientation, and age (as well as other characteristics) strengthen us.
In November 2020, Nine PBS joined Public Media for All, a diverse coalition of public media workers, led by people of color. The group is raising awareness of the negative effects of a lack of diversity, equity, and inclusion in public media, and sharing solutions for individuals and organizations.

America's Public Television Stations Recognizes Steward
Satchel Paige played for the St. Louis Browns in 1951. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1971.
On February 23, America’s Public Television Stations (APTS) presented the David J. Brugger Lay Leadership Award to David Steward II, immediate past board chair, Nine PBS. Since joining the APTS Board in 2019, Steward has played a critical role in building bipartisan support for federal funding for public media. He received the award in recognition of his efforts to increase public media funding by a total of $30 million over the last two years, the first increase after a decade of level funding.
Where Memories Gather Just in time for opening day, Baseball, Ken Burns's epic 18-plus-hour miniseries about America's favorite pastime returns April 1 to Nine PBS. The 1994 documentary pursues the game—and its memories and myths—across the expanse of American history, from its origins in the 1840s through the early 1990s. The final episode draws on Major League Baseball’s establishment of the free agent system, the rise in player salaries, continued expansion, dilution of talent, and scandals. Watch or livestream the premiere episode April 1 at 8 pm or stream on the free PBS Video App or at ninepbs.org.
Trivia This St. Louis Cardinals player was called the "AllAmerican Out" by Babe Ruth because of his poor batting performance: A. Lefty Grove B. Leo Durocher C. Fred McMullen D. Eddie Cicotte
Answer: B. Durocher played for the St. Louis Cardinals from 1933 to 1937.
David Steward II, Immediate Past Board Chair, Nine PBS, received APTS’s leadership award.
“Dave Steward is an extraordinarily effective lay leader of public broadcasting, both at the national and local levels. He is a relentless and eloquent champion, whether with the chairman of our appropriations subcommittee, his network of business leaders, or his neighbors in St. Louis.” —Patrick Butler, president and CEO, APTS
Steward is an Academy Award-winning producer who owns and operates multiple companies with a mission of creating, discovering, and highlighting multicultural and diverse content in the entertainment industry. He founded The Lion Forge, LLC, a St. Louisbased publisher in 2011. In 2018, he created Polarity, a holding company to oversee the operations of a portfolio of companies. In 2019, Polarity launched Lion Forge Animation studio. MAR–APR 2021 | ninepbs.org

2007 Living St. Louis Profiles Josephine Baker Some of us were lucky enough to see fellow St. Louisan Josephine Baker perform live. Senior producer Ruth Ezell remembers when her parents took her to see Baker perform in Detroit where she grew up. It was late in the trailblazing performer's career, but she left an impression on young Ruth. Ezell would later produce a profile of Baker for Living St. Louis that aired November 19, 2007, on Nine PBS.
She frequented the entertainment district near Chestnut and Market streets. While performing with the Jones Family Band, a theater manager spotted her and put her on stage. She never looked back. She later left St. Louis, eventually landing in Paris, her adopted hometown. She returned to St. Louis in 1952 with a performance at the Kiel Auditorium (now Stifel Theatre).
Baker was born in St. Louis. She was a singer and dancer with a distinctive comic style and the first African American woman to earn international stardom. She was a cultural trailblazer, reinventing her image throughout her career and defying gender and racial stereotypes and barriers along the way.
Her experiences in St. Louis shaped her quest for racial harmony. She became an activist and humanitarian, refusing to perform in theaters that segregated audiences. She was married four times (two were considered interracial) and adopted 12 children of different nationalities.
She spent her early years in the Mill Creek Valley neighborhood near Eugenia Street, just southwest of Union Station, which was racially diverse at the time.
She was inducted in the St. Louis Walk of Fame on Delmar Boulevard May 20, 1990, and she has a street named after her in Grand Center, Josephine Baker Boulevard.
In Ezell’s profile, Baker's nephew, St. Louisan Richard Martin Jr., said his aunt was influenced by the horrors of the East St. Louis race riots. (Watch the 2003 Nine PBS special, Made in USA: The East St. Louis Story, which reported on the event, at ninepbs.org/eaststlouis.)

Spring Semester of Teaching in Room 9 One of the great strengths of Nine PBS's on-air distance classroom, Teaching in Room 9, is how we collaborate with teachers, education leaders, and the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to ensure the content continues to meet our community's evolving needs. Teaching in Room 9 updated its format to best serve the young learners still at home due to the pandemic. Since launching in April 2020, the show has aired over 850 episodes and has been viewed more than 2 million times on air and online. The new schedule began in January and airs Monday through Friday from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm. In addition to lessons on reading, math, and science for children pre-K through third grade, the show now features lessons in the related arts, including letters and sounds, friends and feelings, movement, and visual arts. The art lessons are thanks to our new partnership with the Saint Louis Art Museum. A letter of appreciation from a young fan of Teaching in Room 9. Supported by Bank of America, Berges Family Foundation, Dana Brown Charitable Trust, Edward Jones, Emerson, Pershing Charitable Trust, STEMpact, and Saint Louis Art Museum.
New Community Engagement Manager In 2020, Nine PBS took on leadership of the Regional Youth Employment Coalition (RYEC), previously a part of the United Way’s Ready by 21 initiative. Tanisha Joyce (left) has joined our team to ensure the success of RYEC at Nine PBS. Tanisha comes to Nine PBS with an intimate knowledge of our region’s youth-workforce landscape. She has six years of classroom experience as a middle school teacher for St. Louis Public Schools (SLPS). As her students moved on to high school, she felt moved to support their post-secondary planning, which led her to SLPS’s Office of College
and Career Readiness. Tanisha also was a founding team member of the Innovation School in the FergusonFlorissant School District, building the infrastructure of its internship program. In 2020, she was recognized by St. Louis Magazine in their list of “35 St. Louisans working to build equity across the region.” Tanisha’s passion for strengthening opportunities for young people and helping companies understand the high level of talent in our youth makes her a great addition to the Nine PBS team.

America ReFramed: The Place that Makes Us
The story of Ohioan families at a crossroads after the sudden closing of the GM Lordstown auto plant as they decide between taking a transfer to an out-of-state plant or staying put. As they wrestle tough choices, they are left wondering why a company recording billions in profits is shuttering factories.
A quintessential post-industrial American city is seen through the efforts of a new generation. This film is an inspiring portrait of Youngstown, OH, activists and leaders who have chosen not to abandon their hometown, but to stay, rebuild and make a life for themselves.

Unfolding in the dark stairwell of a Brooklyn housing project, the shooting inflamed the residents of New York City and thrust two marginalized communities into the uneven criminal justice system together.
