Dear Friends, We’ve made it to March and the glimmer of spring is on the horizon. Soon ahead are longer days, warmer sunshine and the splendor of Georgia wildflowers welcoming the renewal this time of year brings.

Here at GPB we’re all about renewal too! For us, 2023 is a year to sharpen our focus on mission. GPB is many things to many people, but perhaps most importantly it’s a community service.

Lately, the idea of understanding and nurturing our culture of philanthropy as a company has become a prime objective. You see, it’s important for all of us at GPB to understand that your generosity, combined with the generosity of the state, makes what we do possible.

Everything!

If we stand in a constant reminder that everything we do is because of the generosity of others, then the work we do becomes that much more intentional. And the by-product is better service to the many varied communities across the state – which is GPB’s overall goal.

Sure, we’re a media company, and we’re all about entertaining you, and we talk about that a lot in GPB Next, but really, we want to offer opportunities to enlighten you, broaden your sense of the world, offer lifelong learning and respect for all kinds of views through civil conversation. That’s the GPB I’m most proud of – the one focused on making your life better.

That said, entertainment is also an important part of our mission, and this month certainly doesn’t miss the mark on that across all of our platforms. On GPB TV you’ll be able to take a momentary escape to Sanditon as season three of the MASTERPIECE favorite premieres Sunday, March 19. Also on the way March 19 is the premiere of season 12 of the popular drama Call the Midwife, and this month brings new episodes of Frontline, Independent Lens, Great Performances and American Masters!

On GPB Radio, we thank Harry O’Donoghue for his many years of bringing our listeners The Green Island Radio Show, which will air its last episode this month. Don’t miss the recap in the GPB in the Community section of the wonderful event featuring The Black Legacy Project hosted in our studios in partnership with Music in Common. And finally, we’re so proud to share the work of our GPB Education Outreach team around the state in this month’s GPB Education section.

Warmest regards,

Bert Wesley Huffman GPB President and Chief Revenue Officer

Binge the entire new season of Sanditon on GPB Passport beginning March 19!

Seasons 1 & 2 are available now for catch-up viewing.

SANDITON

Final Season Premieres Sunday, March 19 at 9 PM

S

anditon will premiere its third and final season Sunday, March 19 at 9 PM, but MASTERPIECE promises just as much excitement as the series ends.

Described by The New York Times as “lush and fun” among its many good reviews, Sanditon was first inspired by Jane Austen’s final, unfinished novel and adapted and created by Emmy® award-winning screenwriter Andrew Davies.

Susanne Simpson, Executive Producer of MASTERPIECE says, “Sanditon has been an incredibly special series for MASTERPIECE, and we know it has found its way into the hearts of countless fans. While we are sad to say goodbye to the series, we know our audience has a lot to look forward to in this new season.”

Stream your favorite programs with GPB Passport - gpb.org/passport

Set at an English seaside resort in the early 1800s, season three of Sanditon features returning characters Charlotte Heywood (Rose Williams), Georgiana Lambe (Crystal Clarke), Alexander Colbourne (Ben Lloyd-Hughes), Tom Parker (Kris Marshall), Mary Parker (Kate Ashfield), Lady Denham (Anne Reid), Edward Denham (Jack Fox), and many other beloved residents.

Joining the series are several new characters that will bring drama, laughter and romance along with them.

Lady Montrose (Emma Fielding, Van der Valk) is the quintessential Austen mother – she arrives in Sanditon with one objective: matches for her children, Lydia and Henry.

Lydia (Alice Orr Ewing, A Very English Scandal) is an independent young woman who is not as eager for a match as her mother. Lord Henry Montrose (Edward Davis, Emma) is charismatic and confident, and he holds a secret.

Rowleigh Pryce (James Bolam, New Tricks) is a wealthy, curmudgeonly investor who is interested in teaming up with Tom Parker on the seaside resort’s expansion.

Their plans become complicated when Rowleigh runs into Lady Denham. Also new to Sanditon is Alexander’s brother, Samuel Colbourne (Liam Garrigan, Cobra) – a lawyer and charming bachelor.

Join us for a viewing party in the GPB Studio where we will enjoy light refreshments and share the first episode of the season on the big screen before it is available to the public!

GPB EDUCATION GPB’s Education Outreach Team Helps Inspire Teachers Throughout the State

S

ince the beginning of this school year, members of GPB’s education outreach team have personally shared GPB’s trusted content with nearly 2,000 educators by providing free virtual and in-person professional learning opportunities throughout schools,

districts, professional conferences and in partnership with like-minded service organizations.

The outreach team, which includes manager Tracey Wiley and specialists Dr. Kiawana Kennedy and Dr. Kimberly Stokes, travels the state in a dedicated effort to support Georgia’s educators with thousands of no-cost quality educational resources that are created, curated and distributed by GPB and our PBS partner stations nationwide.

The team finds increasingly creative ways to connect with more and more educators each school year to encourage and inspire them through GPB’s award-winning video series, games, lesson plans, comprehensive courses, virtual learning journeys and more.

“It’s been so rewarding to help establish and grow with GPB’s outreach team over these past seven years,” says GPB’s education outreach manager, Tracey Wiley, “Since I started at GPB in 2015, we have been able to share our content with more than 41,000 lifelong learners, and we continue to create new relationships and build on the ones we’ve made to date.”

The Green Island Radio Show Airs Final Episode March 19 This month we say goodbye to a staple of GPB Radio, The Green Island Radio Show, which first began airing in 1992.

With each program, host Harry O’Donoghue, a talented Irish folksinger, storyteller and humorist, has featured the very best Irish and Celtic music. “I have very much enjoyed co-producing and hosting the show all these years and will miss it,“ said O’Donoghue. “We had some fun times, some great co- hosts, some talented musicians who stopped by and some enlightening and informative phone interviews with major Irish entertainers and writers.”

The last broadcast of the Savannah-based program will air on the GPB Radio Network Sunday, March 19 at 9 p.m. O’Donoghue plans to continue to perform and take tour groups to Ireland each year with his company, O’Donoghue Tours.

“Harry’s passion for Irish and Celtic music and the depth of his knowledge has made for a rich experience for our listeners,” said GPB Director of Radio Programming Ellen Reinhardt. “We are grateful for all the years his dedication has allowed GPB to bring such a wonderful program to our listeners, and we wish him much success as he spends more time focusing on his career.”

Music in Common seeks to strengthen, empower and connect communities through the universal language and introduced attendees to The Black Legacy Project, a musical celebration of Black history to advance racial solidarity, equity and belonging through a film screening and live performance, including a communal rendition of “We Shall Overcome.”

The program concluded with a community conversation, at the end of which the audience was charged to introduce themselves to one another and carry on the conversation – which they did during a lively reception in the GPB atrium.

As it travels the country, The Black Legacy Project brings together artists of all backgrounds to record present-day interpretations of songs central to the Black American experience and compose originals relevant to the pressing calls for change of our time. We look forward to having them back at GPB in April to continue the collaboration and hope you will join us!
