Dear Friends, Last year, more than 17 million people tuned in for Season Two of Downton Abbey, making it the most-watched Masterpiece series on record! I imagine many of you were part of that audience, and that you re eagerly awaiting the premiere of Season Three. On Sunday, January 6 at 9 p.m., the wait will be Norm Silverstein over as WXXI-TV returns to Downton Abbey, where wrenching social changes, romantic intrigues and personal crises grip the estate. It s going to be a drama-packed season that I know you ll enjoy. If you re a die-hard Downton fan, you ll want to learn more about our next WXXI Travel Club excursion. We re headed to England and Highclere Castle (where Downton Abbey is filmed). You can purchase the trip outright, or take a chance to win a trip for two when you buy a raffle ticket. (See details about the trip and the raffle on the page to the left of my letter.) January also marks the eleventh year of Dialogue on Disability: The Herman & Margaret Schwartz Community Series. This annual outreach initiative with the Al Sigl Community of Agencies designed to encourage community dialogue about the abilities of people with disabilities and the importance of inclusion kicks off on Monday, January 7. WXXI has put together a full week of special programming on television, radio, and on screen to encourage conversation around the issues people with disabilities face. The centerpiece of this year s initiative is a special screening at the Little of Shooting Beauty, a film that tells the story of an aspiring fashion photographer whose life is transformed when she starts a photography program for individuals with disabilities. WXXI will host two free screening of the film at the theatre on Monday, January 14 at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. After the 6 p.m. screening, we ll Skype in the director, Courtney Bent, for a discussion about the film. For a complete list of our Dialogue on Disability programs, visit WXXI.orgdod. Partnerships, like the one WXXI has with the Al Sigl, help both organizations present a stronger and more focused effort to bring about change in our community. The same holds true with our partnership with the Little. This month we celebrate the one year anniversary of our new relationship with The Little. This partnership has proven to be mutually beneficial, supplying The Little with the resources and support needed to move toward greater sustainability and providing WXXI a venue to offer screenings of some very important documentaries. Over the past year we ve hosted a number of screenings including Bully, Half the Sky, and Solar Mamas, as well as the premiere of our own Frank Lloyd Wright s Boynton House: The Next 100 Years. Many of these films were followed by panel discussions designed to encourage movie-goers to Share the Experience of film. This partnership has also moved the Little toward a more solid financial future. During Thanksgiving weekend, The Little saw a 20% increase in attendance from last Thanksgiving, and sales were up 40%. It s been a great partnership and a great year, but we still have a lot of work to do. Now we re focused on bringing The Little into the digital age. You will be hearing more about our Go Public Campaign to raise funds for this critical work to take The Little into the future with new digital projectors and sound, while preserving the ability to show archival films and to partner with the many film festivals in our region. Of course, our most important partnership is the one we have with our members. We thank you for that and, on behalf of all of at WXXI and The Little, we wish you a Happy New Year! Sincerely, Norm Silverstein, WXXI President norms@wxxi.org

4 NEWS&EVENTS Diane Rehm Speaks to a Sold-out Crowd During WXXI s Luncheon More than 600 guests attended WXXI s Luncheon with NPR s Diane Rehm at the Rochester Riverside Convention Center in late November. As part of the program, WXXI s President Norm Silverstein sat down for a one-on-one interview with Diane, who was engaging and entertaining. Norm also opened the floor for questions, and when Diane was asked about the importance of NPR in the current media landscape she replied It would be a sad day if the public didn t have a voice they could trust one free of commercial interest or an advertiser s point of view. We go to extraordinary lengths to provide balanced points of view, and I believe that the need for a strong news presence has never been greater. WXXI s Coat & Sweater Drive All of us, at some time or other, need help. Whether we re giving or receiving, each one of us has something valuable to bring to this world. That s one of the things that connects us as neighbors in our own way, everyone is a giver and a receiver. Fred Rogers WXXI teamed up with the Rochester City School District (RCSD) to sponsor a sweater and coat drive as a tribute to Fred Rogers and his example of being a caring neighbor. WXXI s Coat & Sweater Drive ran for two weeks in November. During the drive, members of the community were asked to donate new or gently worn sweaters and winter coats, as well as other clothing. Collection receptacles were located at WXXI, the Little Theatre, RCSD s Central Office, the Rochester Public Market, and select YMCA of Greater Rochester branches. Thousands of coats, sweaters, mittens, hats and other pieces of clothing were collected and distributed by the RCSD to its students. If you donated to WXXI s Coat & Sweater Drive in November, we thank you! We d also like to thank all of our collection sites. To kick off the drive WXXI wrapped a tree outside the station with a sweater (pictured). The sweater was d by local fiber artist and WXXI employee Gretchen Spittler. photos: Jeffrey Mills Robert C.

He also serves as a great champion of Rochester s public broadcasting station, sharing with his colleagues, family, friends, and the community the importance of WXXI and why he values it. To commemorate the award, a tree has been adopted in Highland Park in Mr. and Mrs. Stevens honor. Mr. Stevens name has been inscribed on WXXI s Associate of the Year plaque.

Fighting body and soul, they led the most important civil rights crusade in American history. What began as a pacifist movement became a fiery and furious struggle that forever changed the nation. Black and white, Northerners and Southerners, poor and wealthy, these passionate anti-slavery activists tore the nation apart in order to form a more perfect union. The series, which tells the story largely through period drama narrative, airs 150 years after the Emancipation Proclamation took effect in January 1863.

While other kids around her could talk and converse easily, she struggled to attach meaning to everyday words and phrases. While she was born with severe learning disabilities, as an adult she managed to completely overcome them by changing her own brain. This special is part of Dialogue on Disability: The Herman & Margaret Schwartz Community Series, a partnership between WXXI and Al Sigl Community of Agencies that celebrates the amazing lives of people with special needs. Running January 7-14, the intiative features special programming designed to encourage community dialogue about the abilities of people with disabilities. In addition to this program on AM 1370, 1370 Connection will host several programs on the topic of disabilities. For a complete list of programs and to learn more about the series, visit WXXI.orgdod.

State of the Re:Union with Al Letson: East Jackson, Ohio: As Black as We Wish to Be airs Sunday, Janaury 20 at 9 p.m. In this episode, Al Letson and guest producer Lu Olkowski visit a tiny town in the Appalachian foothills of Ohio where, for a century, residents have shared the common bond of identifying as African-American despite the fact that they look white. Racial lines have been blurred to invisibility, and people inside the same family can vehemently disagree about whether they are black or white. It can be tense and confusing. As a result, everyone s choosing: Am I black? Am I mixed race? Or, am I white? Adding to the confusion, there s a movement afoot to recognize their Native-American heritage. Intelligence Squared US: Can Israel live with a nuclear Iran? airs Sunday, January 28 at 9 p.m. Despite increased international pressure and economic sanctions, the IAEA reported that Iran doubled its number of underground nuclear centrifuges over the summer of 2012, stopping just short of the capacity to produce nuclear fuel. Can Iran be trusted to act rational, or is Israel correct in viewing it as an existential threat? Prime Minister Netanyahu has criticized President Obama for his refusal to draw a red line that would trigger U.S. military action, hinting at the prospect of a pre-emptive Israeli strike. But what are the costs and benefits of military action? Is a nuclear Iran inevitable, and will it destabilize the region?

18 wxxi&little Shooting Beauty Monday, January 14, 6PM and 8PM WXXI and Al Sigl Community of Agencies present two free screenings of the eight-time award-winning documentary Shooting Beauty. Part of WXXI and Al Sigl s annual Dialogue on Disability: The Herman & Margaret Schwartz Community Series, Shooting Beauty tells the inspirational story of an aspiring fashion photographer, Courtney Bent, whose career takes an unexpected turn when she discovers a hidden world of beauty at a center for people with significant disabilities. After the 6 p.m. screening, Ms. Bent will join us via Skype to talk about her film. Shot over the span of a decade, the film puts the viewer in Courtney s shoes as she overcomes her own unspoken prejudices and begins inventing cameras accessible to her new friends. Courtney s efforts snowball into an award-winning photography program called Picture This and becomes the backdrop for an eye-opening story about romance, loss and laughter that will challenge what you thought you knew about living with a disability and without one. Mary Jo, a Picture This photographer photo: All rights reserved by Shooting Beauty Soul Food Junkies a WXXI Community Cinema Series presentation On Monday, January 28 at 7:00 p.m. WXXI hosts a free screening of Soul Food Junkies. Soul food lies at the heart of African American cultural identity. Filmmaker Byron Hurt sets out on a historical and culinary journey to learn more about the soul food tradition and its relevance to black cultural identity. Hurt s exploration was inspired by his father s lifelong love affair with the high-fat, calorie-rich traditional soul food diet and his unwillingness to give it up even in the face of a life-threatening health crisis. Hurt discovers that the relationship between African Americans and culinary dishes like ribs, grits, and fried chicken is culturally based, deep-rooted, complex, and often deadly. This film is part of WXXI s African American Educational Awareness Film Series, now in its 5th year. The series is made possible with support from our sponsors: Pothos Productions, Freedom Trail Commission, WHTK-1280AM What s Goin on with Brown & Allen, The Community Place of Greater Rochester, and Threshold CAPP. The film will be followed by a panel discussion with: Wayne Lewis, Jesse Allen, and Tom Banister. Community Cinema is a groundbreaking public education and civic engagement initiative that brings together leading organizations, community members and public television stations to learn, discuss and get involved in today s critical issues. The national project is supported in part by Independent Lens, PBS, CPB, National Endowment for the Arts, Women & Girls Lead, National Center for Media Engagement and ITVS. photo: Shawn Escoffery Dialogue on Disability is a week-long outreach initiative designed to encourage community conversations about the perspectives and abilities of people with physical and intellectual disabilities.

Beginning January 12, the Little Café will open Saturdays and Sundays at 2:30 p.m. with a limited menu. January s ART EXHIBIT at the Little Café In January Oil Painter Beth Bailey presents American Roadtrip: An Artistic Exploration of Family, Americana, and the Open Road in 1955 at the Little Café. When Beth Bailey s mother was in her final year of high school, her mother s father was selected by one of the largest department stores in Cleveland, Ohio to travel across the country to document the opening of Disneyland in Anaheim, California. It was his job to capture, in photographs and film, the excitement of this brand-new park and bring it back home so it could be incorporated into store displays. The film now resides in the archives of George Eastman House, along with his documentation of the 1964 World s Fair. The father, a manic depressive tyrant, ordered the entire family into a brandnew car and they underwent a cross-country odyssey that was equal parts wonder and threat. Along the way, they ran across a Hollywood film production taking place in the desert, experienced the near breakdown of his wife, travelled Route 66, and siblings bonded in brand-new ways. This trip was equal parts the unraveling and salvation of one family (depending upon which family member you happened to be). One of the most memorable experiences on their trip was that of the Hollywood film production, and many of Bailey s paintings in her series capture the family s unadulterated pleasure as they stumbled upon the shoot. It seems only fitting to unveil American Roadtrip in the café of Little Theatre. Please join us for a reception with featured artist Beth Bailey on Sunday, January 6, from 5-7p.m.

19 Spotlight on a WXXI Business Partner Our focus is on quality and partnering with other small, local businesses. Penelope Pankow, Owner, F. Oliver s With locations in downtown Canandaigua, Park Avenue in Rochester, and The Commons in Ithaca, F. Oliver s is a retail store that sells premium extra virgin olive oils and aged balsamic vinegars. We feature both flavor-infused products as well as single varietal extra virgin olive oils and aged balsamic vinegars all of which are bottled right at the store and offered for tasting, explained Penelope Pankow, owner of F. Oliver s. Our focus is on quality and partnering with other small, local businesses. Pankow emphasized. Our olive oils are remarkably fresh ultra-premium oils seasonally sourced from both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Our balsamic vinegars are produced in Modena, Italy, by a premium balsamic house. And our customer service is exemplary, serving as another example of our quality principles. F. Oliver s works with an independent graphic artist, a freelance photographer, and features products by a small local pottery maker and local food product producers. F. Oliver s also connects with neighboring merchants, merchants associations, and business development groups at each store location. Pankow feels that partnering with WXXI enables F. Oliver s to support quality programming in the area while simultaneously building awareness of the F. Oliver s brand: Many customers comment that they heard about us on WXXI. The underwriting announcements on WXXI are brief and informative. Listeners actually hear these announcements rather than change the channel. An additional benefit to partnering with WXXI is that we are supporting a valuable resource in our community at a very reasonable cost. F. Oliver s will be offering classes and educational tasting events in On a personal note, Pankow starts and ends her day with AM 1370 and its affiliated stations (WRUR 88.5) in both Rochester and in Ithaca (WITH 90.1). Her favorites include Morning Edition and All Things Considered, Fresh Air, Open Tunings, World Cafe, Wait! Wait!
