Cover – Bodega Bay A service of North Bay Public Mediasm International Short Film Festival - Thank you for your support! Saturdays at 11:30 pm 2 in the news Big Read, Sonoma County Returns This year Big Read, Sonoma County takes place in March instead of April. The book selection is Bless Me, Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya, which tells the story of a young boy growing up in a small town in New Mexico just after World War II. Its title comes from the name of an old woman who comes to live with his family. She shares a special relationship with young Antonio as he struggles to please his mother, who wants him to grow up to be a priest, and his father who expects him to become a vaquero (cowboy). Ultima is also a curandera, someone who uses herbs to cure the people in the village. The story is full of rich imagery by Anaya, who has written a number of books reflecting his love of the New Mexico landscape and its people. While the main focus of Big Read, Sonoma County is on Bless Me Ultima, we also invite people to read other books by Rudolfo Anaya; there is one that is appropriate for every age so everyone in the family can participate in Big Read, Sonoma County (Anaya’s book titles are listed on krcb.org/thebigread or you can see them on display during March at your local library). Just as in last year’s Big Read Sonoma County, we are inviting businesses, organizations and government leaders to join KRCB and the Sonoma County Library in celebrating Anaya’s Bless Me, Ultima as well as his other books. Reading groups are invited to contact us to obtain print Reader’s Guides and Audio Guides for this book provided by the NEA. To become a community partner go to krcb. org/thebigread and/or contact our new Big Read, Sonoma County Project Coordinator, Mary Devon Dietzen (rt) at 707-322-6371 (email [email protected]). You can also go to Big Read, Sonoma County facebook page for up-to-the-minute reports on community events. Reading about other’s life experiences can have a profound impact on our understanding of one another as it deepens our knowledge of that which is unfamiliar or even strange. Bless Me, Ultima is a book that will take you into another world that may be different from the one you know; it is worth the experience so pick up a copy at your local library! The Big Read is an initiative of the National Endowment for the Arts designed to restore reading to the center of American culture. NEA presents Big Read in cooperation with Arts Midwest.

Getting Better Sonoma County’s Health Action Council (HAC) has adopted the audacious goal of making Sonoma County the healthiest county in California by 2020. As KRCB serves the entire North Bay (and beyond!) we want to support our entire community in all efforts to improve our collective health. Calling our initiative—at least for now—Getting Better, KRCB will focus programming, engagement, and outreach efforts on improving our health “scores.” In order to be successful, change will be needed on an individual, organization, and community-wide level. Photo: Amanda Ward And whatever the level, the first step is often the hardest, KRCB staff, Wendy Nicholson, Stan so we will also be exhorting all of us to “just do it!” Marvin, Mary Bishop, and Lorraine Bruno In order to be authentic in these exhortations, and to become healthier ourselves, the KRCB staff is undertaking a number of new activities here at the station. One staffer is offering occasional yoga classes, another setting up a time for us to have a brown bag lunch together, and yet another is bringing her walking shoes and getting us out to walk around the neighborhood. Think about what you can be doing where you work so you can also be Getting Better!

Dear Member, Like any organization, KRCB has a crew of incredible folks running the show behind the scenes. These are people you’ll probably not hear or see on the air, but they make the entire show possible. In no particular order—staff who are dedicated to fundraising fill a variety of jobs. They telemarket for auction items, plan membership drives, send out renewal remind- ers, and make certain that you receive your thank you gift when you join. Grants are written and underwriting is sold to great local and regional businesses. In none of this are we “begging,” but rather giving individuals and businesses the opportunity to support this valuable local institution. Many of you know our administrative staff—a great personal phone team (no you won’t get a machine, at least not during business hours), folks paying the bills, prepar- ing for our annual audit, and making certain we follow all the rules. Part of what our engineering staff does is also making sure we follow the rules of the FCC, and fundamentally doing all the work it takes to make sure we’re on the air and you can watch and listen to the shows you love. Production staff in television and radio, our community outreach staff, rounded out by our news staff, provide the content you see, hear, and experience in the community. All these folks make your public media service everything it can be. Hats off to the KRCB team.

Nancy Dobbs President and CEO 4 KRCB TV 22 looks at new education programs To Be Heard A verité film intimately shot over four years, To Be Heard is the story of three teens from the South Bronx whose struggle to change their lives begins with writing poetry. As writing and reciting become vehicles for their expressions of love, friendship, frustration, and hope, these three youngsters emerge as accomplished self- aware artists, who use their creativity to alter their circumstances. Focusing on three students at University Heights High School in the South Bronx, the poorest urban county in the United States, To Be Heard introduces viewers to Karina, Anthony, and Pearl who have all struggled since birth. Every day, they directly confront the suffering and oppression of poverty, broken families, and an indifferent, often hostile school system. Enmeshed in the story of the three teens is a look at the source of their inspiration— a nontraditional poetry class called Power Writing. Wednesday, February 1 at 9 pm

The Game Changers Amidst the debate over fixing the country’s ailing education system, The Game Changers tells of a bold initiative designed to transform American classrooms. In 2009, the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation launched an innovative pilot program to identify high-ability people in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering and math), fund their training at four universities and create new teacher-preparation programs that focus on the skills and knowledge needed in the Information Age. Each student would receive a $30,000 stipend in exchange for completing the newly created master’s degree program. Then, they would go to work in Indiana’s high-need rural and urban schools.

Beginning at the height of the Civil Rights Era and leading up to the present, it provides a truth- ful, unflinching look at often-ignored artists and their progeny.

The Hampton siblings—and their kids and even grandkids—have made their mark in many different areas of the jazz world, from traditional big band swing, to more experimental jazz to cabaret singing.

Up from the Bottoms: The Search for the American Dream Up From the Bottoms: The Search for the American Dream tells the story of the massive migration of African Americans from the rural south to the prosperous north during the World War II years and beyond. They left behind the legacy of slavery and segregation and set out to find the American dream. The voice of Cicely Tyson guides us through these touching, thoughtful and often funny stories as told by fifteen residents of Muskegon, Michigan. During the late 1930s through the 1960s, factory jobs in the north were abundant while farming jobs in the south were disappearing. It started a trickle, but once the word got back to families in the south, it turned into a flood of people uprooting their lives and moving to the land of prosperity, the industrial north.

Can the buy- ing power of the Pentagon drive innovation in new energy technologies and create markets? This conversation explores how the US Navy and other military branches can align their intellectual and financial capital to accelerate and broaden the transition to cleaner sources of electricity and transportation fuels for American forces and the American economy. Energy Innovation Severin Borenstein, Co-director, Energy Institute, Haas School of Business, UC Berkeley; Richard Lester, Director, MIT Industrial Performance Center; Dan Reicher, Executive Director, Steyer-Taylor Center for Energy Policy & Finance, Stanford Energy innovation is easy to talk about and difficult to implement. Does the country’s system for creating new energy systems need to be radically overhauled or just tweaked? How can new capital flows get companies through the infamous “valley of death”? Is it better to subsidize research and development of new technologies or deployment of existing ones? “Business as usual” certainly won’t fill the innovation gap, and proponents say that the world needs massive deployment of new low-carbon technologies to address climate change in a world with growing demand for power. Join us for a discussion of energy innovation, economics and policy with three of the country’s leading energy thinkers. Sunday, February 26 at 11 am

11 Early music in the morning on Harmonia

February 5 – Renaissance music in theory Listen in as we explore Renaissance composers champi- oned by music theorists. Some heralded the arrival of new musical eras; others chose to reflect on the musical achieve- ments of past generations and peers.

February 12 – Immortal beloved On this special edition, we’re singing love’s praises with sonnets by Petrarch and the Song of Solomon. We’ll also celebrate iconic lovers such as Robin and Marion and see a “return to peace” on a featured release by La Parlement de Musique.

February 19 – Two shadows and a spotlight As in any profession, there were some composers who rose to the top of the heap during the Renaissance and others who stayed a little below the surface. But that doesn’t mean their music is not worth listening to! Today we’ll highlight the music of medieval composer Zacara da Temaro and Renaissance composer Pierre Moulu. In contrast, we’ll also look back at the career of one of the most well-known sopranos of our time Montserrat Figueras, who passed away in November 2011.

February 26 – Musical tour of Rome Join us for an early music tour of Rome, including some music for the Roman Carnival season. We’ll also sidetrack over to Spain for a visit to the Shrine of Santiago, then head back to Rome in a featured release by The Cardinall’s Musick.

Sunday, February 26 at noon 12 Energy and economics on Climate One conversations February 2 – Energy Innovation America’s innovation engine is the envy of the world, yet it struggles to deploy new technology at the scale commensurate with its economic might. A panel of experts from three of the nation’s leading universities says that the U.S. risks falling behind if it refuses to address the technical, financial, and political barriers slowing energy innovation. February 9 – The Great Disruption Growth as we’ve known it is over, say Paul Gilding and Richard Heinberg. “The idea that we can keep on growing the economy up against the physical limits of the Earth”—water, oil, and land—“is not physically possible,” says Gilding, author of The Great Disruption. Adds Heinberg, author of The End of Growth, “We’ve been borrowing from the past, by way of fossil fuels. We’re also borrowing from future generations, by way of debt—all so that we can consume as much as possible right now. I think we’re going to have to hit the wall before we see fundamental change.” February 16 – Sun Up In the wake of the collapse of solar panel maker Solyndra, the solar industry has received front-page treatment for the first time. Unfortunately, most of the coverage has been negative and ill-informed, even though solar is one of the fastest-growing industries in the United States. February 23 – Boom or Bust? Climate change “is going to dominate our world in the next century. It’s a very big risk, but it’s also a tremendous opportunity, if we make the right choices,” says Dan Miller, Managing Director at the venture capital firm The Roda Group. He offers four recommendations: move to 100% carbon-free electricity in 10 to 20 years; keep tar sands and oil shale in the ground; expand R&D into geo-engineering, especially carbon capture and storage; and put a price on carbon.

This one-hour historical trek takes us from the 1950s thru the 1990s. Dr. Maya Angelou renders a poetic portrait of the day-to-day lives of African Americans during the civil rights era, when artists and activists, musicians and ministers joined hands with people from all walks of life to bring about a historic change in our culture. Congressman and fellow Presidential Medal of Freedom 2011 recipient John Lewis shares some of his experiences during the Freedom Rides of 1961 and the civil rights era. Nikky Finney, winner of the 2011 National Book Award for Poetry, discusses her critically acclaimed acceptance speech and shares stories of growing up in a civil rights family, while explaining how her work was impacted by the era. Singer and songwriter Mary J. Blige, who will play Nina Simone in an upcoming film, discusses her five-year preparation for the role aimed at encouraging and educating a new generation on the life and times of the singer and civil rights activist. Economist and Bennett College President Dr. Julianne Malveaux discusses the impact of the Civil Rights movement on education, economics and how knowledge has begun to trans- late into a new prosperity with continued challenges. Ambassador Andrew Young talks about his relationship with Martin Luther King and the fight for equality during a time when separate but equal was not enough. Wednesday – February 22 and February 29 at 7 pm

Something completely Flashback This month, two of Radio 91’s Tuesday evening program hosts will team up for a three-hour special that will dig deep into the Bay Area’s rich musical past. Roland Jacopetti (Some- thing Completely Different) and Bruce Robinson (Flashback) will look beyond the names everybody knows (Santana, Janis Joplin, the Greatful Dead) to share tracks from the remarkable breadth of the region’s musical output during the days before, during and after the Summer of Love. Thus you can expect to hear from such folks as Moby Grape (rt), Joy of Cooking, Cold Blood, the Sons of Champlin, and Mother Earth, as well as even less familiar names like Mad River, The Charlatans, Ace of Cups and the Frumnious Bander- snatch. All this and more is not to be missed, on Tuesday, February 7, 7-10 pm.

Folk Music Calendar Live and Online KRCB presents a weekly calendar of live folk music performances in and around Sonoma County. Hear it live at 2 pm Saturdays during Our Roots Are Showing, or read it anytime at krcb.org. The folk music calendar is compiled by Schaef-Able Productions.

18 Rockin’ good shows this month on E-town

February 6 – Lyle Lovett / Taj Mahal – Green Rocks Part 2 It’s Part Two of our special Green Rocks at Red Rocks show. Origi- nally taped and aired in 2010, our “Green Rocks” event continues the recycling, zero waste zones, renewable energy use, and biodiesel bus transportation we originated at this magnificent venue a few years back—practices that have now become standard procedure for the stunningly beautiful Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado. Part Two brings more music from Lyle Lovett (rt) and Taj Mahal.

February 13 – John Gorka / Hot Buttered Rum In this rebroadcast, long-time favorite John Gorka shares both new and classic material, delivered with that signature warm, rich baritone voice of his. Also, the Northern California bluegrass influenced band Hot Buttered Rum joins us.

February 20 – Big Head Todd and the Monsters / Nicole Atkins Be sure to join us this week as we welcome back some old friends, the nationally renowned band Big Head Todd and the Monsters. Since the band got its start more than 20 years ago, they’ve had a platinum record, done movie soundtracks, played live for astronauts on the space station, and toured the world. And talented newcomer Nicole Atkins (left) shares some original, gutsy-bluesy songs.

February 27 – Josh Ritter & The Royal City Band / The Hold Steady From Griffin Concert Hall in Fort Collins, CO, we welcome back talented singer/songwriter Josh Ritter, this time with his full band in tow. Josh was recently named one of the 100 greatest living songwriters by Paste Magazine. Also joining us this week is the band The Hold Steady. Known for their heavy rock ’n’ roll sound and intense narrative lyrics, they shift gears and perform a special pared down, acoustic set for us. Mondays at 7 pm Lofty music on Sunday mornings Every Sunday morning at 10, Sonoma County’s very own choir lofters bring you the best in choral music. February 5 – Choral New World Order Choral composers from the New World. Hosted by Kris Haugen. February 12 – Palestrina Among centuries, the sixteenth was sweet. Hosted by Dan Solter. February 19 – Truly archival A performance of Verdi’s Requiem recorded live at La Scala in 1927. Hosted by Anthony Marin. February 26 – Cantatas for Quinquagesima Sunday Bach didn’t write any cantatas for the first Sunday in Lent, so we’ll back up a week. Hosted by Steve Osborn. Giuseppe Verdi 19 Join us….

Volunteer of the Month – Elizabeth Guidos

At KRCB we like to tell stories that connect people, so of course I like to hear the stories volunteers tell me about their lives. Whenever we feature a KRCB Volun- teer in Open Air it provides me with that opportunity in addition to being able to share their story with others—connecting us as a KRCB community. Elizabeth Guidos-—Betsy as she likes to be called— is our March Volunteer of the Month. Betsy joined the KRCB family a little over a year ago and went from being an occasional volunteer to one of our regulars. She enjoys the social aspect and the variety of projects that could not be done without the help of a “Betsy.” At first she wasn’t sure if she’d like answering phones (during our radio pledge drive) but she said, “I felt so supported by the staff that it wasn’t hard at all.” Now she comes in one day a week to assist News Director Bruce Robinson, by hunting down people and information for him to use in his daily North Bay Report. Doing research on the internet is something Betsy has experience in; she does freelance work as a fine art appraiser and she spends a lot of time researching various works of art. Betsy also has a Master’s Degree in Art History and was a museum curator for ten years. Michigan was her home until she was offered a job as a resource librarian for an architecture and design firm in Los Angeles. When that ended she went back to Michigan, only to return to sunny California again where she did graduate work in Interior Design at San Francisco State University. Betsy laughs at the twists and turns in her career; we are just glad that she is here! Come to think of it, the interior halls of our building could use a splash of color… If you would like to bring your skills and talent to KRCB give Cheryl Scholar, Com- munity Engagement Director and Volunteer Manager, a call at 707-584-2005 or email [email protected]

PBS Helps Kids Realize Their Potential According to the latest Roper Public Affairs and Media survey, the American public has rated PBS the most educational media brand and the undisputed leader in children’s programming. Here are some other interesting statistics: • More than 21 million children watch PBS Kids on TV, and more than 20 million engage with PBS Kids online each quarter. (Nielsen NTI and Google Analytics) • PBS is the #1 source of TV and online content used by pre-K teachers in the classroom. (Frunwald Study) • For the 12th year in a row PBS Kids won more Emmy awards for children’s programs than any other media company. • Children from low-income families who watched as few as two episodes of Super Why! scored 46% higher on standardized tests than those who did not watch the program. (University of Pennsyvania Annen- berg School for Communiction) • PBS KIDS offers nine literacy series and 15 series on science, technology, engineering, and math. • PBSKIDSPlay.org was named the winner of the 2009 Teachers Choice Awards for the family. • Preschoolers from low-income communities who participated in PBS KIDS’ media- rich curriculum outscored their peers who did not participate in the curriculum on all tested measures of early literacy. (Education Development Center and SRI International).
