DR. PHIL HOFFMAN ANNOUNCED AS NEW NMPBS
GENERAL MANAGER AND CEO
Following a national search, NMPBS Is proud to announce the hiring of new General Manager and CEO, Dr. Phil Hoffman, who begins April 1. He will succeed Franz Joachim who will be retiring as General Manager & CEO after a 12-year tenure.
Phil arrives to us after serving as Assistant Dean of Media and General Manager of Ball State PBS and Indiana Public Radio. He brings more than 20 years of experience in public media leadership, multimedia strategy and higher education administration.
“I look forward to working with the team at New Mexico PBS to build on its legacy of civic service while adapting to today’s media environment,” Hoffman said. “The opportunity to serve New Mexico—with its rich culture and strong commitment to education and storytelling—is energizing.”
At Ball State University, Hoffman led Ball State PBS, which serves more than 23 counties in east central Indiana, and Indiana Public Radio, a four-station network reaching 22 counties.
Hoffman holds a doctorate in Higher Education Administration. An Emmy Award–winning editor, director and writer, he has worked as a reporter and documentary producer. His 2009 documentary, Turn Blue: The Short Life of Ghoulardi, received two regional Emmy Awards. He is married to award-winning artist and professor Joan Fagan-Hoffman and has two daughters, Mina and Marissa.
The staff and management of NMPBS are proud to welcome him to the Land of Enchantment.

Turn Your IRA Into Impact for NMPBS
If you’re 70½ or older, you can support the programs you love on NMPBS directly from your IRA—often with tax advantages.
• Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs): At age 73 the IRS requires you to withdraw a minimum amount from your IRA each year. These withdrawals are normally taxable income.
• Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs): Instead of taking the money yourself, you can direct up to $105,000 per year from your IRA straight to NMPBS. This counts toward your RMD but is excluded from your taxable income when handled correctly.
Giving this way can reduce your taxes while ensuring trusted news, children’s programming, and local stories continue to thrive for all New Mexicans.

ROSSINI
Moses in Egypt (Mosè in Egitto) is a sweeping Biblical epic rarely heard in the United States. This visually arresting production features Justin Hopkins (Bluebeard 2023 & Norma 2018) as Mosè and Ashley Milanese in her company debut as Elcia. Expect dramatic storms, plagues, and miracles, set to some of Rossini’s most powerful writing. It’s as if The Ten Commandments were an opera!
