Anniversary
More Than Early Diagnosis for Alzheimer’s
Georgia Memory Net is known for helping Georgians living with memory challenges or cognitive decline get an accelerated, accurate diagnosis for Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias. We also help the families of Georgians living with Alzheimer’s with connections to local support and educational resources that can improve their lives.
One such resource is our Embracing Improvisation video series, which shows how the skills of improv theatre can help care partners better validate their person living with dementia.
The first step to support is diagnosis. If you’ve noticed signs of memory loss or cognitive decline, don’t wait. Make an appointment with your Primary Care Provider and tell them about your symptoms. They may refer you to Georgia Memory Net for diagnosis. Visit GaMemoryNet.org/referrals to learn more.

Dear Friends,
A Word from President & CEO
Bert Wesley Huffman
Are you concerned for the future of public media? That’s kind of a rhetorical question I suppose. Anyone who supports GPB is likely concerned about its continuance. So, that question may have been used in the past to remind you of just how important your gift is to GPB. But now, on the eve of our 65th anniversary, it means something different. I’ve been asked by any number of donors and friends of GPB over the course of the last few months questions ranging from “How are you weathering the storm?” to “What can I do to help?” It’s a conversation I’m always glad to have. I am passionate about the work we do here at GPB. In fact, I believe it is vital to the fabric of our state. We keep you informed and up to date on the news and events locally and across the world. We serve as a friend and companion with beautiful, well-made and thoughtful programming opening your eyes to worlds you may have never seen. We care for your children tenderly with a passion for teaching them anything from their ABC’s to growing up as a compassionate citizen of the world. And I believe that, in the long run, everyone will see that.
When I took my first job at GPB in January of 2014, I made a pact then to focus on doing good in a sincerely nonpartisan way. In that time, my colleagues and I have done just that. We’ve held ourselves accountable in every way ensuring that in news we’re bringing you the story from all angles and through visual media holding that valuable space as a safe harbor for children and adults. So, I know from the bottom of my heart that public media is as American as apple pie. It represents all of us and shows many of us, for the first time, somewhere we belong. But it also reminds us of where we come from and presses us to take action on issues and challenges we are passionate about. At times it may convince us to consider other alternatives or even change our minds. It must be here.
So, what can you do? You’re already halfway there. If you’re receiving this magazine right now, then you’re already doing your part to support us with a gift that fits into your personal budget. Certainly, you could consider giving a little more or increasing the value of your sustaining gift to GPB. But beyond that, I want you to be an advocate for GPB. Share positive stories and thoughts on social media, remind your friends and neighbors of our value and speak out in support when you can. GPB is here for everyone, even those who may not be able to see our value right now. We take our vision to Unite and Uplift Georgia seriously. Public media is a shared space where a range of opinions can converge and transform into a civil and respectful conversation. With your support we will continue to do that for another 65 years and beyond!
Warmest regards,
Bert Wesley Huffman

Happy 65th Anniversary to GPB Organization Marks Special Day May 23
By Mandy Wilson NEXT Editor
Aloaf of bread, a container of milk and a stick of butter” – like many members of Generation X, I hear this grocery list from the the classic 1972 Sesame Street segment, “I Can Remember,” almost every time I head to the store. The animated segment features a young child who promises her mother she can remember what she is supposed to get at the store without writing it down. She repeats it perfectly until she arrives at the store, before forgetting and asking those of us in the viewing audience if we can help her remember the list.
It’s moments like these from Sesame Street , Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood and The Electric Company that made an indelible impression on me and gave me the feeling that I was being welcomed into the world of these programs and spoken directly to like a friend.
At the time, I didn’t realize that I was viewing these shows on what was then known as Georgia Educational Television. But as GPB marks its 65th anniversary on May 23, I now take pride in the fact that its roots are in my hometown of Athens. In 1960, GPB, then known as Georgia Educational Television, officially launched at the University of Georgia.
Many other changes would take place before GPB would become the multi-faceted organization that it is known as today, including the transfer of the Georgia Educational Television license from UGA to the Georgia Public Telecommunications Commission in 1982, where it became known as Georgia Public Television. In 1985, WJSP-FM, broadcasting from Warm Springs, and WDCO-FM (later WMUM), in Macon, became the first radio affiliates of GPB. Then in 1994, the state legislature approved funding for an educational division, helping GPB become recognized as Georgia’s digital education content provider.
As I mark 25 years with the organization later this summer, I can think of many projects that have strengthened my belief in the importance of what GPB produces, along with the delivery of PBS and NPR programming.
“From documentaries and television series, to podcasts, educational resources and more, GPB gives me a deeper appreciation for the people and places in our state.”
-Mandy Wilson NEXT Editor
From documentaries and television series, to podcasts, educational resources and more, GPB gives me a deeper appreciation for the people and places in our state.
I hope you’ll remember what makes GPB special to you and know that among the many ways your support as a donor helps GPB live out its vision to Unite and Uplift Georgia, it provides moments like what I’ve described during my childhood to countless other children.
Personally, it’s a great honor to tell the story of GPB through NEXT, and throughout the coming months, we’ll spotlight this pivotal year for our organization with a special 65th anniversary feature in each issue and additional content across our digital platforms.
We look forward to bringing you more stories and having you join us in the celebration of our 65th anniversary.

Shaping Tomorrow’s Storytellers
GPB’s Student Voices Collective Wraps A Powerful First Year
This school year, Georgia’s students had something to say—and the tools to say it well.
In June 2024, GPB launched the Student Voices Collective (SVC), a statewide initiative that empowers students through civic storytelling, media literacy and hands-on journalism.
The program began with a dynamic kickoff workshop at GPB in Atlanta, where nearly 40 educators and community partners collaborated and trained in mobile journalism, field recording and digital storytelling. One teacher called it “the best professional development I’ve experienced in 16 years.”
Throughout the year, students produced original stories in response to quarterly prompts, including the 2024 election, local concerns and untold Georgia stories. Their work, from podcast episodes to student interviews, is showcased at gpb.org/svc
Thanks to your generosity, these young journalists are learning more than just media skills—they’re learning to shape conversations in their schools and communities.
The journey continues this June with GPB’s next kickoff workshop. Thank you for making space for Georgia’s next generation of storytellers.
In Manufacturing Danger: The BioLab Story, a new six-part podcast, GPB’s Pamela Kirkland investigates what led to the chemical fire at the BioLab facility in Conyers Georgia in 2024.
Firsthand accounts, expert analysis and newly uncovered details help frame the broader implications of chemical safety, regulation and corporate responsibility—while giving voice to those living with the consequences. Visit gpb.org/podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts
GPB Partners with Atlanta Way 2.0 As Part of Our Vision to Unite and Uplift Georgia
We take pride in our role as a knowledge hub where Georgians of all ages can access a variety of free and trusted platforms that encourage lifelong learning and collaboration. In fact, collaboration and community are key components of our organizational values that we incorporate into everything that we do. It makes sense then that GPB would partner with Atlanta Way 2.0, an organization committed to connecting people to strengthen the civic fabric of Greater Atlanta.
The Atlanta Way 2.0 is a modern-day concept based on the cooperative approach of business and civic leaders working together to peacefully resolve problems and issues during the 1960s through the early 2000s. The concept is aimed at connecting people and organizations for the greater good of the Atlanta region. Examples include bringing together organizations with related missions to work on common goals, introducing executives who are new to the city and helping them form community ties, and linking regional leaders facing challenges with people who can help them work on tangible solutions.
This work aligns closely with GPB’s values and vision to unite and uplift Georgia, and we were pleased to host a group of Atlanta Way 2.0 Activators at our headquarters for an orientation meeting earlier this spring. Attendees represented area nonprofits, businesses, and civic groups and were gathered together to connect and share ideas about large regional challenges including housing, community development and transportation. Big problems may not have been solved in the room that day, but GPB is pleased to be a resource for the community in this way as we work together to make Georgia the best place that it can be.
“We
are so grateful to GPB for hosting the Atlanta Way 2.0 Activator Orientation since both GPB and Atlanta Way 2.0 encourage everyone to demonstrate a civic spirit that reflects more inclusive and participatory way of resolving conflicts and addressing issues... Both prepare a path for each person to be an ‘Activator’ by strengthening the civic fabric in their lives and the lives of the people they touch.”
-Ann
Cramer Atlanta Way 2.0 Chair
“We are so grateful to GPB for hosting the Atlanta Way 2.0 Activator Orientation since both GPB and Atlanta Way 2.0 encourage everyone to demonstrate a civic spirit that reflects more inclusive and participatory way of resolving conflicts and addressing issues,” said Atlanta Way 2.0 Chair Ann Cramer. “Both prepare a path for each person to be an ‘Activator’ by strengthening the civic fabric in their lives and the lives of the people they touch.”

GPB Attends Public Media Summit in Washington D.C.
Annual Meeting Provides Opportunity for Stations to Meet with Local Delegations on Capitol Hill
Leadership from public media stations across the country gathered in Washington, D.C. in February for the annual Public Media Summit hosted by America’s Public Television Stations (APTS). This annual event is the largest gathering of public broadcasting leadership who come together to explore issues that are vital to the future and mission of public service media. Over the course of two days, attendees participated in conference sessions programmed to address a political landscape with significant uncertainty and growing threats to public media. Presentations included steps that station leadership can take to help ensure that every Member of Congress has a clear understanding of the essential local station services and community impact that the federal investment delivers through the national-local, public-private partnership model that is the public media system. Public media provides local content, information and essential public services in a way that no one else does.
The third day of the Summit, attendees spent the day on Capitol Hill meeting with local delegations. GPB President and CEO Bert Wesley Huffman and Vice President of Development and Engagement Emmalee Hackshaw started the day off with a Welcome to Washington event hosted by Senator Jon Ossoff, followed by meetings in the offices of Representatives Sanford Bishop, Andrew Clyde, Barry Loudermilk, Lucy McBath, Buddy Carter, Brian Jack, Rick Allen, Mike Collins and Richard McCormick.
These meetings provided an opportunity to share the great work that GPB does for Georgians - reaching 100 percent of Georgians through our network of nine television stations and 21 radio stations, providing free digital educational resources for children and families, keeping Georgians safe with emergency alert messages and connecting communities through strategic partnerships. And while we were not able to secure meetings with Senator Raphael Warnock, Representatives Hank Johnson, Nikema Williams, Austin Scott, David Scott or Marjorie Taylor Greene, we were able to leave information about GPB in each of their offices for review and reference.
We are proud of the work that GPB does and the service that we have provided to Georgia for 65 years. Communicating the value of GPB is a responsibility that we take seriously and are happy to carry out. And while we will continue to carry this message, we ask for your support in communicating the value that you see in GPB. Share what you see and hear on GPB, connect with us on social media and through the GPB app, or join us at a community event. Visit protectmypublicmedia.org to learn about other actions you can take to advocate for public media and stay informed and updated about the continuing discourse around federal funding. We’ve done our part, now you do your part!
GPB Strengthens Commitment to Health & Wellness Information
No matter our age, where we live or what we do, issues related to health are often top of mind.
Over the years, GPB has provided a variety of health and healthcare information resources, whether it’s special PBS programming, local programs like Your Fantastic Mind produced in partnership with the Emory Brain Health Center or our local and national news reporting.
Health and Wellness is one of four Mission Critical Areas identified in our strategic plan. As such, we are strengthing our commitment to addressing health topics with initiatives that keep you engaged, informed and supported as you make decisions around your health and the health of your families and communities.

Following its broadcast premiere on May 5, GPB will host four community screenings and talkbacks in partnership with the Alzheimer’s Association, Beyond Dementia Coalition and Fulton County Library System. Also in May, GPB kicks off a series of reports and community events in conjunction with the premiere of Caregiving, a documentary and national engagement campaign on the state and stakes of providing care in America. Project partners include the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers.

American Experience: Mr. Polaroid
Monday, May 19, 10 PM
Long before smartphones, another device allowed its users to instantly chronicle their lives, spurring a drive for photography mania and becoming the model for today’s Silicon Valley tech culture. It all began with the Polaroid Model 75, released in the fall of 1948 by a Harvard dropout who, after his inventions to improve car windshields and headlights fizzled out, pivoted to photography. This is the story of Edwin Land, co-creator of Polaroid who dreamed up “a camera you would use as often as your pencil or your eyeglasses,” hoping that his invention would lead the world and perhaps even save it.
