He paid tribute to those who devoted countless hours to the regulatory hearings, court battles and fund raising necessary to “birth” an institution that would become WXXI. And he especially noted the loyalty of those members who joined in 1966 and still proudly call themselves members of the WXXI family! The memories, stories and warmth of the event are something that we will always treasure. What fueled the motivation to start a public television station in Rochester had much to do with Harold Hacker. Convinced that public television was a civic good, Mr. Hacker and his colleagues set forth to obtain a broadcast license. After five years of hard work, our neighbors tuned in to WXXI-TV 21 to hear Mr. Hacker introduce the station’s first broadcast, Julia Child’s The French Chef. On air he told viewers that they were about to witness something the community had never seen or heard before – educational television on Channel 21. When the station’s charter was first submitted, we were referred to as RAETA (Rochester Area Educational Television Association). Education was a cornerstone of our mission 40 years ago and remains so today. Today our commitment to education doesn’t stop at the television or radio. We complement our programming with many outreach initiatives that take our mission to a new level. Recently, WXXI completed a year-long partnership with the University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC) and the local community coalition, The Roadwork For Success In Young Adulthood. This national initiative, Raising 100,000 Voices, was designed to help in understanding the needs and assets of the community from the point of view of those emerging into adulthood. Our local effort involved 100 15-24 year olds from the Greater Rochester area in a film project that encouraged them to share, through video, the issues they face as emerging adults. They were given single-use digital cameras and asked to produce short documentaries. Topics included everything from teen violence to depression, living with diabetes to global warming, and more. Thirty of the participating students presented their videos at a public screening at the School of the Arts at the end of June. Later this month we plan to post the videos on our web site. Check them out at WXXI. org/education. This kind of outreach effort is why WXXI was invited by the National Center for Outreach (NCO) to participate in the Models of Engagement Summit – where a select group of stations/organizations talk about what we are doing to engage our community partners in educational outreach. We were asked to join this prestigious group because of our achievements in outreach and because of our unrelenting effort in providing the Greater Rochester area with the opportunity to learn. It seems that the more things change, the more things stay the same. Our commitment to education was the driving force behind Rochester’s first public broadcasting station. Forty years later our television services, in addition to Channel 21, include four digital channels (one of them High Definition), four radio stations, Reachout Radio, and programming delivered over the Internet. But our driving force remains the very same. I ended my remarks to the group gathered in our studios on June 13th with a quote from one of our earliest program guides in 1968. We reprinted a portion of the testimony of Frank Pace, Jr. on his nomination to be Chairman of the newly established Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB). I particularly liked this line: “…public television accords with the American tradition established by our founding fathers: Any citizen, rich or poor, irrespective of race, color or creed, may, with the twist of the wrist, have available the best of history, art, music, drama or entertainment.” Today, because of the commitment and long held belief of our members, “best of education” also holds true. Thank you for your commitment to WXXI!

Also on hand are the Hopeful Gospel Quartet, the Wailin’ Jennys and, of course, Guy’s All-Star Shoe Band. “We’re celebrating this great country, with great American stories and great American songs,” Keillor says, noting that the program marks the townfolks’ first appearance on the acclaimed Great Performances series. “They’re strong, they’re goodlooking, they’re above average and they are excited. And I get to give my annual Lake Wobegon Fourth of July speech.” One of America’s most beloved humorists, Garrison Keillor started work at Minnesota Public Radio in 1969 on a 6-to-9 a.m. show called A Prairie Home Companion, named after the Prairie Home cemetery in Moorhead, Minnesota. From this he developed the idea of adding musical guests and commercials for imaginary products, and in 1974 he hosted the first live broadcast of the program as it is known today. More than four million listeners now tune in each week to hear the program. Here at home, A Prairie Home Companion airs Saturdays at 6 p.m. on Classical 91.5/90.3, Sundays at 12 noon on AM 1370, and Mondays at 6 p.m. on WRUR-FM 88.5.

If anyone knows about honor and service its World War II veteran Ralph Chinelly. Even after serving in the war and receiving two medals, Mr. Chinelly continued to devote his time to volunteering and helping fellow veterans. Despite the fact that Mr. Chinelly is blind, the lives of many veterans have been improved due to his persistent work. Some of the assistance that he has provided for veterans includes obtaining Seeing Eye dogs, portable lung machines, prescription medications, and walkers and canes. Mr. Chinelly also helps to preserve the memory of those who have passed by finding grave markers, flags for caskets, medals and other symbols of veterans’ service. All of Mr. Chinelly’s enduring and unselfish work has hardly gone unnoticed. In 1995 he was presented with the Merit Award for his service to fellow veterans, and in 2002 was named Man of the Year by those at the East Rochester Memorial American Legion Post #1917. Most recently, however, Senator James S. Alesi selected Mr. Chinelly as a 2005 Veterans Hall of Fame Honoree. The Hall of Fame was created to honor and give recognition to outstanding veterans from New York State who are distinguished in both their military and civilian lives. From WWII to Hall of Fame, Mr ..Chinelly.has.served.his.country.and.touched.the.lives.of. many. He has proved to the world that anything is possible, no matter what challenges lie in the way.

Below are a few HD program highlights for JULY. Nature: Shark Mountain airs 7/2 at 8 p.m. Some 300 miles off Costa Rica is Cocos Island, a tiny Pacific outpost that was once a favorite haunt of pirates. Cocos, a designated World Heritage Site, lies directly in the path of powerful ocean currents that often collide with the island, churning the waters into an undersea storm. A team of expert and intrepid divers, led by renowned underwater film specialists Howard and Michele Hall, leads viewers into this ultimate domain of sharks. Niagara Falls airs 7/5 at 8 p.m., 7/7 at 11 a.m., 7/8 at 9 a.m. and 7/9 at 4 p.m. Niagara Falls is more than the celebration of a natural wonder; it’s a study of human achievement and human folly on an epic scale. It’s a tale of affable lunacy and high drama, danger and desire. The awesome Niagara Falls was the nation’s first great symbol, an emblem of a vast, untamed continent of beauty and limitless resources. The fate of that beauty and bounty is the focus of the film. Soundstage: “Garbage” airs 7/6 at 10 p.m. Garbage was formed in 1993 by consummate producer/ drummer Butch Vig and producers/multi-instrumentalists Steve Marker and Duke Erickson. One year later they added the beguiling and sultry Shirley Manson to front the band. Garbage is one of the most respected groups of the 90s alterna-scene and its trademark sound aptly marries electronic loops with rock ’n’ roll. The Garbage set includes select songs ranging from impressive mega-hits to fan favorites.

There were no grand gestures, no change of clothes, no make-up. It was a simple shift, a slithering out of one skin into the other. The “outing” of Marilyn is something she looked at with both skepticism and awe. Arguably the most photographed person ever, she once said, “I carry Marilyn Monroe around with me like an albatross.” In this new film American Masters offers a unique take on one of the world’s first superstars by turning to the still photographs that captured Monroe’s beauty, complexity and, ultimately, her own complicated relationship with the star side of herself.
