At the age of 10, Eva Mozes Kor fought to stay alive inside the concentration camp where she and her twin sister Miriam endured cruel experiments devised by Nazi doctor Josef Mengele. After decades of torment and pain following her liberation, she decided to use her experiences as a teaching tool for other generations. Despite health issues, the 4-foot-9, 85-year-old circles the globe delivering her messages of healing and self-empowerment. She addresses current global atrocities, as well as two of the biggest problems facing today’s youth — bullying and discrimination.

JIM MALLEY, FACILITIES MANAGER FOR THE LITTLE THEATRE, NAMED GERALDINE REDDIG EMPLOYEE OF THE YEARWXXI and the Little Theatre held its annual Staff Appreciation Luncheon in March. As part of the program, WXXI Board of Trustee Vice Chair Robert Healy presented the Geraldine B. Reddig Employee of the Year award to Jim Malley, Facilities Manager for the Little Theatre. The award is presented annually to a staff member who has made significant contributions to the organization; shows skill and ability in his/her position; displays a willingness to exceed in his/her job requirements; and possesses a positive attitude.

As Facilities Manager, Jim inspects, monitors, and maintains building functions, meets with contractors, handles/coordinates general repairs, keeps up with the grounds, and helps out with special events. He was instrumental in the first phase of The Little’s restoration of theater one and will oversee phase two, which is happening now and will continue through October.

Upon accepting the award, Jim said “I love what I do and to be able to be the caretaker of this gem of a place gives me great pride and satisfaction. I get to work with a great team of talented people and craftsmen to continue to improve and enhance this Art Deco treasure. I look forward to the next phase of our restoration process and am so excited to see the plans coming together - it is going to be amazing!”

Employees at the station nominate the Employee of the Year and a select group votes on a winner. One of Jim’s peers describes him as someone who brings his A-game every single day. Another writes: Jim is a huge asset to The Little and we are so thankful we get to call him our very own.

CONGRATULATIONS, JIM!

DEAR FRIEND,The audience measurement provider, the Nielsen Company, recently updated the way they capture information on viewership in our market. The new way is more frequent and more accurate. And that’s good news for WXXI. With the old quarterly reporting of viewership, we were only able to see how our schedule did four months out of the year – November, February, May and July (also referred to as “sweeps” rating periods). Now we can see how our line-up is performing monthly. That means we’ll have a much better and timelier measurement of viewership, to help us pick programs that our local audience truly appreciates.

Our first updated measurement report last July showed that we had many more viewers than was typically reported. We saw a 96% increase in viewership for our primary channel, WXXI-TV, compared to the year before! We were pleasantly surprised by that, and we were equally surprised to see that our CREATE channel had a 168% increase and our WORLD channel had a 451% increase. Of course, we don’t expect that drastic of an increase next year, but what that means is that WXXI’s programs – including our award-winning educational children’s shows and our local productions –are reaching a larger audience and having a positive impact on many more people in our community.

Speaking of quality programming, our Emmy-nominated, national health care series “Second Opinion” will be taping 10 episodes in May for season 16. We invite you to be part of the studio audience. We’ll be taping two episodes each day at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., May 14 through May 18 at WXXI’s studios. If you’ve ever wanted to see how a national TV show is made, this is your chance (more details are on the page to your left).

This month also brings Joseph Shapiro, NPR correspondent and author of “No Pity: People with Disabilities Forging a New Civil Rights Movement,” to Rochester for the American Academy of Developmental Medicine and Dentistry’s ONE VOICE Conference, May 9-12. WXXI and the Golisano Foundation, as part of our Move to Include initiative, are proud to be a co-host of this event that’s bringing industry leaders and Intellectual/Developmental Disability professionals together for “Inclusive Health.” Joe is the conference’s keynote speaker, but before he attends that conference he’ll be meeting with our Board of Trustees and those from the Golisano Foundation to learn more about our work with Move to Include and for him to share his work with us.

In my letter last month, I noted that President Trump’s proposed budget recommends eliminating federal funding for public media and that I encouraged you to reach out to our lawmakers to support public media funding. There’s still time to do so and there’s a quick and easy way to do it by visiting www.protectmypublicmedia.org

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Norm Silverstein [email protected] | @normWXXI

THE ROCHESTER LILAC FESTIVAL is a 10-day celebration of over 500 varieties of lilacs accompanied with music, family-friendly activities and special events. In the late ‘90s, Jeff Springut was asked to book the national acts for the Festival, which seemed like a natural progression from his background in producing concerts. Jeff dives into the behind the scenes of the Festival.

Q. What does the band selection process look like?You need to stay on top of what’s hot and what’s not, both on a national and regional level, and then distill that down as to what/who’s meaningful in our market. Fortunately, I have always enjoyed listening to music, all kinds of music. I can’t sing or play an instrument, but fortunately I have a pretty good ear.

Q. Any lesser-known festival activities you would recommend seeking out?The Garden Battles are fun to watch. I think we’re up to 7 teams now – mostly area media personalities who have one hour to build a 15’ x 15’ garden. We supply the materials and the public votes throughout the festival. The winner gets $1,000 from the festival to donate to their favorite local charity and the runner up $500. Q. Up-and-coming artists we shouldn’t miss this year?That’s a loaded question. It’s a pretty strong lineup. Among several, I wouldn’t miss Eli “Paperboy” Reed, Mikaela Davis, Alyssa Trahan, Cory Wong and one of my faves: Willie Nile.Q. Favorite lilac. Go!I actually just sniff around until I find one that I like! Who can remember those names?Q. 3 tips for attendees?1. Watch the no parking signs in the neighborhood. The parking fine is much better spent at the festival.2. If you’re going to attend any (or all) of the alcoholic beverage tastings, then please arrange for

a ride home.3. Leave your pets at home. We know it’s a park, but they’re not allowed on-site during the festival.

FESTIVAL BY THE NUMBERS: 500,000 attendees; 500 varieties of lilacs (1,200 bushes – the largest collection in North America!); 80+ local, regional, national acts over 10 days. Festival details: May 10-19 at Highland Park. Free and open to the public.

CONNECT: NY – FROM SYRACUSE TO NYC: WHAT ARE THE STATE’S TRANSPORTATION NEEDS AND WHO PAYS?SUNDAY, MAY 5 AT 9 P.M.What’s the latest in the on-going effort to replace I-81, the artery that cuts the City of Syracuse in two? How will we pay for its replacement when there is so much need in New York? A recent report from the State Comptroller’s office stated that 12.8% of the state’s roads and bridges need serious repair. With experts on transportation and budget-making, we will dive into the funding streams that flow both upstate and downstate to

support mass transit, highways and bridges, with a special focus on I-81.

Neuroscientists and gerontologists see evidence that people become more vulnerable to financial exploitation as they age. Con artists, fraudsters, even family, friends, and caregivers take money from seniors and abuse their trust. According to researchers, the shame of these crimes prevents victims from reporting or talking about them, creating a crucial public policy issue. Marketplace Morning Report host David Brancaccio (pictured) presents immersive storytelling to explore the evidence for what doctors are calling “Age-Related Financial Vulnerability.”

The Marketplace team presents stories of fraud victims and their families from across the U.S., including a 78-year-old substitute school nurse, who lost more than $230,000 in what started as a computer support scam, and mushroomed into a blizzard of gift card purchases and a bank transfer to Nepal.

Charles Gounod’s most popular opera returns in David McVicar’s stunning Parisian production, with singers including Michael Fabiano, Diana Damrau and Erwin Schrott.

In Shakespeare’s great drama of loss and reconciliation, a long-deposed ruler uses magical arts to bring within her power the enemies who robbed her of her throne and marooned her on a remote island. But what revenge does she mean to take? Stratford Festival’s The Tempest is a visually stunning fantasy, and thrilling big screen adventure in the Little Theatre District.
