WQED's Return to Downtown Pittsburgh Produced by Rick Sebak
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: George Hazimanolis January 18, 2016 412-622-1366 [email protected] WQED’s Return to Downtown Pittsburgh Produced by Rick Sebak Premieres January 28 Newest Documentary in WQED’s Pittsburgh History Series Funded by PNC and the Buhl Foundation PITTSBURGH -- What makes the fountain flow at the Point? Which new office tower has windows that automatically open for fresh air? And where do Pittsburghers go to get a real Chicago-style hot dog? In Return to Downtown Pittsburgh, WQED’s Emmy Award-winning producer Rick Sebak and his crew revisit the heart of this wonderful city to find the answers. Return to Downtown Pittsburgh premieres January 28 at 8 p.m. on WQED- TV and is funded by PNC and the Buhl Foundation, with additional funding from the EQT Foundation, Point Park University and the Pittsburgh Downtown Partnership. The original documentary Downtown Pittsburgh premiered in 1992 and became one of the most popular programs in WQED’s Pittsburgh History Series. In Return to Downtown Pittsburgh, Rick takes viewers on a tour of a twenty-first century Pittsburgh that’s changed with the times yet kept a lot of its old-fashioned charm. “We’ll check out some cool new businesses, revisit some old favorites, and take a brand new look at the good old Golden Triangle,” said Sebak. “It’s a new show about one of Pittsburgh’s oldest neighborhoods, and we try to document some of the quirky charms, old and new buildings, and unforgettable people who help make this such an exciting place to be.” “PNC has been headquartered in Pittsburgh for 164 years and has played a major role in the city’s evolution,” says Donna Peterman, PNC executive vice president and chief communications officer. -

THE FIRST FORTY YEARS INTRODUCTION by Susan Stamberg
THE FIRST FORTY YEARS INTRODUCTION by Susan Stamberg Shiny little platters. Not even five inches across. How could they possibly contain the soundtrack of four decades? How could the phone calls, the encounters, the danger, the desperation, the exhilaration and big, big laughs from two score years be compressed onto a handful of CDs? If you’ve lived with NPR, as so many of us have for so many years, you’ll be astonished at how many of these reports and conversations and reveries you remember—or how many come back to you (like familiar songs) after hearing just a few seconds of sound. And you’ll be amazed by how much you’ve missed—loyal as you are, you were too busy that day, or too distracted, or out of town, or giving birth (guess that falls under the “too distracted” category). Many of you have integrated NPR into your daily lives; you feel personally connected with it. NPR has gotten you through some fairly dramatic moments. Not just important historical events, but personal moments as well. I’ve been told that a woman’s terror during a CAT scan was tamed by the voice of Ira Flatow on Science Friday being piped into the dreaded scanner tube. So much of life is here. War, from the horrors of Vietnam to the brutalities that evanescent medium—they came to life, then disappeared. Now, of Iraq. Politics, from the intrigue of Watergate to the drama of the Anita on these CDs, all the extraordinary people and places and sounds Hill-Clarence Thomas controversy. -
