gpb next magazine Dear Friends, Welcome to your August issue of GPB Next. While the pages of this magazine are most certainly a wonderful outline of things coming to you on television, I hope you also find that it’s a well-rounded view of GPB overall. We’re doing so much here, and this is an excellent way of showing you just that. Thanks to your support, we’re able to push beyond the boundaries of television, radio and digital content and share GPB’s message through a variety of community engagement opportunities. And, whether that plays out where you live with events or virtual opportunities or in the classroom across the state through our vital education program, we are working every day to give Georgia quality opportunities to engage with public media. You make that happen. On the cover of this issue, we’re highlighting the fascinating three-part series The Boleyns: A Scandalous Family. Premiering on August 28, the series follows the rise and fall of a family dynasty that rose from obscurity to the apex of power. All of this changed the very course of British history and the world. In this issue, you’ll also read about our increased commitment to covering Georgia’s rural health issues and stories with the addition of a Report for America corps member, the latest on the PBS Kids Writers Contest and how that played out at GPB, and an interesting new efforts bridging GPB’s community engagement initiatives and our news operation called America Amplified.

Courtesy of FreeWill, GPB is sharing a free estate planning tool with our members: •

Sundays Aug. 28 -Sept. 11 8 PM New Three-Part Series Follows the Rise and Fall of a Family Dynasty Whose Hunger for Power Proved to Be Their Undoing. by Mandy Wilson
B
eloved, betrayed and beheaded, Anne Boleyn is England’s most infamous queen. The second wife of Henry VIII, she was tried on his orders for crimes of adultery and treason, led from her rooms at the Tower of London to her
death by an executioner’s sword. To fully understand Anne’s rise and fall, it’s important to know more about her tight-knit, cunning and power-hungry family. Based on 16th-century sources, including rare original letters and documents, this new three-part series uses insights from leading Tudor scholars and dramatic re-enactments to bring this story to life from the family’s own perspective. Rising from obscurity to the apex of power, the Boleyns played a dangerous game and paid the ultimate price, all while changing the course of British history.
Left to right: Mary Boleyn (Elizabeth McCafferty) and Anne Boleyn (Rafaëlle Cohen)
gpb.org
EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Episode 1 - Sunday, Aug. 28 “Ambition”
Thomas Boleyn, Anne’s father (Max Dowler)
Patriarch Thomas Boleyn is determined to elevate the family name. But it is his ambitions for his three children — Mary, George and Anne — that will take them to the heart of the Tudor court. Recognizing that Anne is extraordinary, he places her in the most influential courts in Europe from the age of 12. Along with other noble families, Thomas jostles for Corpse positionflower in a court rife with gossip, backstabbing rivalries and intrigue.
Episode 2 - Sunday, Sept. 4 “Desire”
George Boleyn, Anne’s brother (Sam Retford)
Henry casts Mary Boleyn aside and turns his attention to her sister. A calculating courtier, Anne adeptly dazzles with her beauty, wit and seductive charm. Henry falls under her spell, and Anne does what all Boleyns do: makes good use of an opportunity. She positions herself as a woman of power and refuses to become his mistress, skillfully leveraging his desire for her to negotiate a marriage proposal.
Episode 3 - Sunday, Sept. 11 “The Fall” In a high-stakes gamble, Anne makes her play for — and wins — the biggest prize in the kingdom. The Boleyns and their allies push Henry to break with the Catholic Church in Rome and claim his destiny as Supreme Head of the Church of England, overturning 1000 years of history. Anne Boleyn (Rafaëlle Cohen)
