An Elephant's Story OCTOBER 2017 AN ELEPHANT’S STORY n a starry night in the wilderness of Botswana, in her 661st day of pregnancy, an elephant named Kiti gave birth to a baby girl. The staff of Abu Camp, a halfway house O for orphaned and former zoo and circus elephants, named the calf Naledi, the word for “star” in their local language. Caretakers, including elephant manager Wellington (“Wellie”) Jana and wildlife biologist and Botswana native Dr. Mike Chase, were pleased by Naledi’s acceptance into the herd and the care she was receiving from her mother. But six weeks after giving birth, Kiti died and Naledi was left an orphan. How the dedicated caretakers rallied to adopt the baby elephant, save her life, and reintroduce her to the herd that had forgot ten her is the story told in Naledi: One Little Elephant, A Nature Special Presentation. Although elephant families are close, it is extremely precarious for a newborn to survive once it’s lost its mother. When the herd’s matriarch can’t produce enough milk to nurse Naledi and doesn’t know how to care for her, Chase, Wellie, and others separate Naledi from the herd and relocate her to another part of the camp, working round the clock to establish a bond and entice her to take milk. The filmmakers also document the cautious reintroduction of Naledi to the rest of the family, as well as surgery to repair her digestive track, which has become blocked due to palm leaves she has eaten. “The challenges elephants face across Africa are so complex: loss of habitat, increas ing human-elephant conflict, retaliatory killings exacerbated by the demand for ivory,” he says. “We’re losing elephants every ©VULCAN PRODUCTIONS PREMIERES THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5 AT 9PM 15 minutes, 96 elephants a day.

    For Immediate Release Contact: Carol Sisco [email protected] (860) 275-7212 cpbn.org, cptv.org, wnpr.org CPTV to Air Bala Brothers on Monday, January 12 at 9 p.m. — The Concert Special Comes to PBS for the First Time with This Premiere Event — HARTFORD, Conn. (December 31, 2014) – Connecticut Public Television (CPTV) will host the U.S. broadcast premiere of Bala Brothers, Monday, January 12, live at 9 p.m. Bala Brothers, who will be live in the CPTV studios, grew up poor in a South African township and rose to become national singing stars while breaking through apartheid barriers. During the concert special, viewers will hear a mix of South African traditional music and contemporary songs from Elton John, Paul Simon and Billy Joel. During the live breaks, Bala Brothers will be interviewed in the studio. This program features the amazing musicianship of the three gifted brothers, who are already stars in their own country; they grew up in a home with dirt floors and no electricity, but were able to lift themselves out of poverty through their sheer talent. Brothers Zwai, Loyiso and Phelo come from a musical family, and all three possess remarkable innate musical abilities and singing voices. They remain influenced by their membership in South Africa’s famous Drakensberg Boys’ Choir. In fact, older brother Zwai broke barriers by becoming the choir’s first black member. -more- CPTV to Air New Bala Brothers Concert Special / Page 2 They are drawn to a number of musical genres, from pop to gospel to opera. Their talents will be displayed in full-force in their first-ever PBS concert special, which was recorded live at the Lyric Theatre in Gold Reef City in Johannesburg, South Africa, with the participation of a 24- piece orchestra and the Drakensberg Boys’ Choir – the very choir that played such an important role in the brothers’ lives, and for which Phelo went on to hold the positions of head chorister and music leader.

  • Intrigues and Delights
    AUGUST 2016 SUMMER DRAMA INTRIGUES AND DELIGHTS Sunday nights in the summer are reserved for must-see dramas, and Dancing on the Edge is just that, combining murder and romance with the sultry sounds of 1930s jazz. The stylish new murder mystery series, premiering Tuesdays at 8pm, beginning August 16, written and directed by Stephen Poliakoff (The Lost Prince) follows the rise and fall of the fictional Louis Lester Band, a black jazz band in 1930s London. The band becomes the toast of high society, earning approval from the Prince of Wales, despite the racism and classism they encounter — until Louis finds himself entangled in a murder case. The all-star cast includes Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave) as the debonair Louis, John Goodman (O Brother, Where Art Thou?) as an affluent American entrepreneur named Masterson, and Jacqueline Bisset as socialite Lady Cremone, a performance which won her a Golden Globe. Masterpiece favorites Matthew Goode (Downton Abbey) and Joanna Vanderham (The Paradise) also star in the eight-part series. “Dancing on the Edge is a thing of beauty to watch,” states The Hollywood Reporter. Sharing a similar sentiment, British outlet Cultbox proclaims, “With its blend of compelling storytelling, sumptuous period production values and toe-tapping music, Dancing on the Edge has us hooked for what looks to be a thrilling ride.” Want more drama? The highly anticipated ninth and final season of Inspector Lewis on Masterpiece will premiere on Wednesday, August 17 at 9pm. For the last time, Inspector Lewis (Kevin Whately) and CS Hathaway (Laurence Fox) will investigate new cases of murder and other crimes in the academic haven of Oxford, together struggling with personal dilemmas and their future on the force.
