For Donors of Georgia Public Broadcasting

Is a loved one having trouble remembering things? It’s true that Alzheimer’s disease is a major cause of memory problems, but there are others. Thyroid disorders, sleep apnea, medications, and vascular disorders can all lead to dementia-like symptoms. Some memory problems are reversible, and accurate diagnosis can lead to appropriate support and treatment. The first step is to talk to a Primary Care Provider about your concerns. They may recommend an appointment with Georgia Memory Net for an accelerated, accurate diagnosis.

Visit GaMemoryNet.org to learn more about getting a referral to a GMN Memory Assessment.

A Word from President & CEO Bert Wesley Huffman

Dear Friend,

As you’re reading this issue of NEXT, we will have just completed the first month of our new fiscal year here at GPB (while our giving cycle is spurred by the calendar year our budget year runs from July 1 to June 30 every year). I don’t have to tell you that this year was a particularly challenging one, but GPB stood up to that challenge and used it as a catalyst to propel us forward. We successfully completed the fiscal year raising the additional dollars needed to cover the $4.3 million funding gap left behind by the dissolution of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and that couldn’t have happened without you.

But it doesn’t end there. I hope that if you joined us as one of the thousands of new donors who found their way to GPB this year, you will continue your support as we move forward. We have exciting plans on the horizon focusing on our audacious vision to Unite and Uplift Georgia. That said, I’m ready to move forward - to leave the challenges behind and lean into the boundless opportunities that exist for public media. Stay tuned throughout the year as we announce some exciting projects aligned with our five-year strategic plan. GPB is going places, I promise!

This month’s issue is filled with features that highlight GPB’s expansive programming offerings and the way we reach out to Georgians across the state with resources to improve their lives.

From our cover story on the new film from American Master s about best-selling poet and Pulitzer Prizewinner Mary Oliver, to our celebration honoring the winning young storytellers of the 2026 PBS KIDS Writers Contest, GPB is deeply committed to making sure Georgians know that we have something for everyone regardless of where they are or what type of learning enrichment they are seeking.

In fact, one of GPB’s most exciting new projects is our participation in Move to Include, an award-winning initiative focused on disability inclusion, representation and accessibility in public media. As part of this effort, GPB is launching a new webpage featuring several of our community partners who are leading advocates for accessibility in Georgia communities.

We’re also proud to announce the upgrade of the GPB App and how its features make it easier than ever to find all your favorite shows, Georgia news, featured podcasts, educational resources and games, and more.

Your support makes all of this and more possible, and everyone at GPB is truly grateful for you.

Warmly,

Mystery Road

Mary Oliver:

Premieres Tuesday, August 25 at 9 PM

F“Tell me, what it is you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”

Saved by the Beauty of the World

or many, this famous line from renowned poet and author Mary Oliver’s poem “The Summer Day” serves as a source of inspiration, often adorning the walls of personal spaces and being shared on social media in today’s meme-obsessed society.

But there is much more to the works of Mary Oliver, and the new American Masters documentary “Mary Oliver: Saved by the Beauty of the World,” from producer/director Sasha Waters, gives viewers an in-depth look at how Oliver answered the question about her own life.

As the film reveals, from a lonely and traumatic childhood in Ohio to literary fame as both a Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award winner, Oliver’s life and writings were shaped by devotion to nature, paying attention and the long journey toward learning to love and to be loved.

Born in 1933, she began writing at age 13 and wryly cites Walt Whitman among other “dead poets” as a major influence. At 17, she had a pivotal experience hiding in the woods for a week, where she’d run away to seek solace from a household she described as dark and broken.

“Ohio, where I grew up was important to me, it being the initial place where I learned to love the earth,” Oliver reflects in the film. “The two things I loved from an early age were the natural world and dead poets. I was kind of a solitary kid, and dead poets were my friends.”

Beginning with her first book in 1963, “No Voyage and Other Poems,” Oliver is credited with works that serve as a touchstone for understanding the human spirit and the complexity of nature.

“I think you have to be in the world to understand what the spiritual is about, and you to be spiritual to really be able to accept what the world is about,” Oliver explains.

“I think you have to be in the world to understand what the spiritual is about, and you have to be spiritual to really be able to accept what the world is about.” – Mary Oliver

Though she was initially intensely private as her success grew, in the latter part of her career, Oliver, who passed away in 2019 at the age of 83, opened herself up to speaking engagements and more opportunities to discuss her life’s work. One such occasion was a conference where journalist and former First Lady of California Maria Shriver finally convinced Oliver to appear after six years.

Shriver appears in the film to discuss the impact of Oliver’s work on her, including the noted poem “The Journey.” Other interviews include filmmaker John Waters and playwright V (formerly Eve Ensler). Stephen Colbert, Lucy Dacus, Steve Buscemi and Oprah Winfrey also offer recitations of Oliver’s work.

premieres Tuesday, August 25 at 9 p.m. on GPB.

In addition to receiving the Pulitzer Prize in 1984 for “American Primitive” and the National Book Award in 1992 for “New and Selected Poetry,” Mary Oliver was awarded numerous fellowships and Honorary Doctorates, as well as teaching at various colleges and universities.

If you’re looking for an introduction to her work, “Devotions: The Selected Poems of Mary Oliver,” a 2017 collection curated by Oliver herself, spans 50 years of her career and is widely celebrated in literary communities as the best single-volume overview of her observations on nature, spirituality, and everyday life.

Additional recommendations include “A Thousand Mornings” and the essay collection, “Upstream.”

GPB Celebrates Young Storytelling Stars at the 2026 PBS KIDS Writers Contest Awards Ceremony

On Saturday, June 27, Georgia Public Broadcasting welcomed families, educators, and some of Georgia’s most imaginative young storytellers for a joyful celebration honoring the winners of GPB’s 2026 PBS KIDS Writers Contest. The annual statewide contest encourages children in kindergarten through third grade to explore their creativity by writing and illustrating original stories while strengthening important literacy and storytelling skills.

Each year, students from across Georgia submit entries in a variety of formats, including fiction, nonfiction, poetry, prose and graphic novels. This year’s young authors once again demonstrated remarkable imagination, originality and talent through stories that entertained, inspired and informed.

After submissions were received, stories were judged by students in Georgia State University’s Master of Arts in Creative and Innovative Education (MACIE) program. Entries were evaluated on creative expression, storytelling, originality and the effective use of both words and illustrations. First, second and third-place winners were selected from each grade level and invited to GPB’s headquarters for a special awards celebration recognizing their achievements.

The event provided an unforgettable experience for the winning authors and their families. Throughout the event, MACIE students led a variety of music, art and movement experiences, giving children opportunities to create, collaborate and celebrate their creativity while waiting to record their stories. Authors also had the unique opportunity to step behind the microphone and record narrated versions of their stories in GPB’s radio editing booths with support from GPB’s radio operations team. Recordings will be combined with the students’ original illustrations to create videos that will be featured on GPB’s website, allowing audiences across Georgia to enjoy the creativity and hard work of these talented young writers.

The PBS KIDS Writers Contest continues to inspire children to discover the power of their own voices and ideas. By encouraging students to create and share original stories, the contest helps build confidence, literacy skills and a lifelong love of reading and writing.

Congratulations to all the 2026 PBS KIDS Writers Contest winners and participants! GPB is proud to celebrate these outstanding young authors and looks forward to sharing their stories with audiences across the state.

Party With the Past

Atlanta History Center featured GPB in its ongoing event series Party With the Past with an evening at GPB’s Atlanta headquarters in May. Party With the Past provides attendees with the opportunity to learn more about the history and work of organizations around Atlanta. Guests were invited to tour GPB’s radio and television studios and learn more about some of our most popular past and current productions. Additionally, GPB President and CEO Bert Wesley Huffman gave an overview of our organization’s history and insight into the origins of public media and the many ways GPB serves Georgians across the state. Attendees were also able to pose for photos with PBS KIDS favorite Arthur.

Welcome to Atlanta Party

In partnership with the Atlanta History Center, GPB helped welcome visitors and locals alike to Atlanta on July 3 in celebration of the Peachtree Road Race and Atlanta’s participation in the World Cup. Held at the Trellis Room in the Margaret Mitchell House in Midtown Atlanta, visitors were treated not only to self-guided tours of the Georgia writer’s home but also visited GPB’s booth to learn more about our initiative, Marked!, and play our card matching game to win GPB-branded prizes. For those who visited our booth before Atlanta History Center’s trivia contest, they were given a hint to one of the question’s answers: the Atlanta History Center asked guests to name the three Georgia signers of the Declaration of Independence, the topic of Episode 9 of Marked!

Scenic Views with Dark Secrets: Exploring Signora Volpe and Mystery Road with GPB Passport

Atrip to the countryside usually warrants rest and relaxation, with life moving at a slower pace. But when you’re a detective or an MI6 spy, it’s impossible to resist being pulled into the murder mysteries that permeate through a small town. That’s what the two newest mystery series added to GPB Passport, Signora Volpe and Mystery Road, have in common: with either central Italy or northwest Australia as stunning backdrops, our protagonists discover both the charm and customs of new places while uncovering their secrets.

In Signora Volpe, released in July on GPB Passport, MI6 spy Sylvia Fox (Emilia Fox, Silent Witness) is disillusioned with her work when her sister, Isabel (Tara Fitzgerald, Game of Thrones) invites Sylvia to her daughter’s wedding in Panicale, a municipality in the Italian region of Umbria. With little excuse to skip it and needing space after her divorce from her ex-husband, Adam Haines (Jamie Bamber, Law and Order: UK), Sylvia travels to Italy to celebrate her niece’s nuptials and meet her new brother-inlaw, the local physician, and his devoted mother. But when the groom doesn’t turn up at the altar, Sylvia investigates his disappearance on her own and in the process, falls in love with Italy and strikes up a relationship with local police captain Giovanni Riva (Giovanni Cirfiera, The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story), who often seeks out her expertise. Sylvia decides to stay, deepening her relationships with both her family and Giovanni while being pulled into various investigations, but it isn’t long until her past life at MI6 catches up with her.

Ideal for fans of Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries and The Marlow Murder Club, Signora Volpe is a mystery series with a confident, creative protagonist that will have viewers craving a scoop of gelato, if not a trip to Umbria, while solving the mysteries right alongside Sylvia. Two seasons of Signora Volpe are available on GPB Passport now with a third currently in production.

Signora Volpe

Next, in a world away from central Italy, Aboriginal detective Jay Swan (Aaron Pedersen, A Place to Call Home) has left Australian city life behind in favor of an investigation focusing on the disappearance of two young farmhands, an indigenous football hero and a white backpacker, on an outback cattle station in the Kimberley region of northwest Australia. There, he must team up with local police sergeant Emma James (Judy Davis, Life with Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows), whose family has made a profitable business in the town, to find the two men. While Jay and Emma uncover racial tensions, drug trafficking and buried secrets, Jay also must contend with his daughter and ex-wife arriving in town, bringing their family’s complicated past with them.

Mystery Road spans two television seasons, both of which take place between the first and second films. However, viewers don’t need to have seen the first film to get swept up in the mystery, characters and beauty of the Australian outback. Fans of Broadchurch, Unforgotten and My Life Is Murder will want to add Mystery Road to their streaming list. Both seasons of Mystery Road arrive on GPB Passport on August 1.

Accessibility in Georgia Communities:

Spotlighting Community Partners Through Move to Include

For many people with disabilities, accessibility and inclusion are not just helpful additions, but necessary resources to lead a healthy and fulfilling life. That’s why GPB is partnering with public broadcasting stations across the country to participate in Move to Include, an award-winning initiative focused on disability inclusion, representation and accessibility in public media.

As part of this effort, GPB is launching a new webpage dedicated to accessibility, featuring a series of blog posts spotlighting several of our community partners who are making accessibility a reality in Georgia communities.

GPB connected with Georgia Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled (GLS), exploring the organization’s work to provide free accessible reading materials to Georgians with disabilities. GLS Outreach Librarian Sarah Trowbridge explained how accessing information through books and media is often essential for GLS’s patrons.

“We’re in an information society, and if someone has a disability that is putting up a barrier between them and what they need to know, then it’s very easy to get disconnected from life, from reality, from your community,” Trowbridge said.

Alongside GLS, GPB’s new webpage highlights organizations including Advancing Employment, Full Radius Dance and Vocal Point. GPB strives to connect with communities across Georgia through our shared dedication to disability inclusion and representation.

Join GPB as we work towards greater accessibility in public media through exploring our community spotlight series. In addition, learn more about Move to Include by visiting movetoinclude.us.
