As a University of Kentucky

accountant and budget

analyst, Lexington’s Diana

Gold uses numbers to tell a story. In

her work, the numbers tell her about

students’ behavior, their challenges,

and how to help them achieve success.

And when you look at the life of

this native of Mexico, you can follow

her story through numbers — from

receiving a BA in accounting and

finance from the Tec de Monterey in

her hometown of Culiacan, to traveling

to the United States for what was to be

for just one year, then on to a degree in

international business from St. Louis

Community College.

Along the way, the busy career

woman and mother came to value

public television for its abundance of

resources that foster lifelong learning,

from the basics of language to higher

education.

“After finishing at the university in

2000, I told my parents that I wanted to

study English in the states,” said Gold.

“I came to St. Louis, Mo., but a

year was not enough, so I decided to

stay and take an associate’s degree in

international business. And that was

about the time I started finding out

about public television.”

She also found that PBS children’s

programs — particularly Sesame

Street — not only helped her with

her English pronunciation, but

provided a taste of American culture

as well.

“I knew some English but the

problem is the pronunciation — you

don’t get it right until you come

here,” she said.

“It’s perfect for immigrants, I

would say, because it’s designed to go

from the very beginner level: learning

colors, numbers, things kids learn

that you just take for granted. But

when you are trying to learn a new

language that’s a great way to start.”

Through children’s programs,

other specials, and PBS NewsHour,

Gold became attuned to the specifics

of life in her new country, such as

the celebration of Thanksgiving. “I

remember watching news stories, and

it teaches you more than just about

the holiday, you’d learn more about

the American way of living,” she said.

Now Gold and her husband,

Brian, a Canadian from Montreal

and a neuroscientist and Alzheimer’s

researcher at UK, appreciate the

programming watched by their two

lively daughters, Carmen, 8, and

Eva, 5.

“I love the kids shows — I feel

like I don’t have to be listening or

monitoring the shows to know, is this

inappropriate or not? And they’re all

very educational! It’s not just all fun

stories. Shows like Odd Squad that

they were watching this morning, they

were learning math, and they were not

even aware of it. And problem-solving!

“As an accountant I appreciate

those two things,” she added with a

smile, “and the fact that they throw in

some Spanish every once in a while.”

COVER STORY

In every animal’s life, there comes a time when it must stand on its own two feet, so to speak, and face the world alone. Find out how animal species all over the world come of age in the new Nature documentary “Animal Childhood.” Some animals are expected to be on their own just moments after birth, with no life lessons from parents to help them and no time to hone their survival skills. Others have the advantage of home schooling under the

watchful eye of a mentor or family member. But growing up is never easy, and finding food, avoiding predators, and making friends does not always come naturally. These are the trials and tribulations of young animals all over the world as they prepare to leave home. This month, Nature also gives you the opportunity to explore other aspects of the natural world in-depth. “Mystery Monkeys of Shangri-La” — airing Wednesday, April 29 at 8/7 pm on KET and Saturday May 2 at 6/5 pm

What do cats really do when they leave the house, and well, start cattin’ around? Find out in Secret Life of the Cat, originally aired on the BBC series Horizon. In a groundbreaking experiment, 50 cats from a village in Surrey were tagged with GPS collars and their every movement recorded, day and night, as they hunt in backyards and patrol the garden fences and hedgerows. In addition, the cats were fitted with specially developed “cat-cams” which reveal their unique view of our world. You may think you understand your pet, but their secret life is more surprising than we thought.

Nova: Nazi Attack on AmericaKET Wednesday, May 6 • 9/8 pmKET2 Sunday, May 10 • 7/6 pm

Long before 9/11, a far deadlier, little-known attack from the ocean depths struck our shores, lasting 3 1/2 years and claiming 5,000 lives. Famed undersea explorer Bob Ballard, discoverer of Titanic, investigates the wreck of one of the attack craft, a German submarine that lies at the bottom of the gulf just a few miles off New Orleans. U-166 was part of Operation Drumbeat, a highly successful U-boat operation that caught East Coast cities and shipping almost completely unprepared.

ReaganKET Monday, May 18 • 9/8 pm

Ronald Reagan has been heralded as one of the architects of the modern world, and, since his death, many Americans have been working to cement his legacy. But some critics argue that the aftershocks of Reaganomics are still causing economies to crumble the world over. Who was Reagan, and how did he come to shape world politics in the way he did? The program provides a definitive and penetrating look at the man whose grip on the public mind has been rekindled by recent events in Republican politics.

KET AIRS A NEW BIOGRAPHY ON THE FAMED KENTUCKIAN

Step back in time with a new profile of one of Kentucky’s most famous native sons in Daniel Boone

and the Opening of the American West, airing Monday, May 4 at 9/8 pm on KET.

In the program, visit the battleground that was the Kentucky frontier, tracing the life of Boone from his birth near Reading, Pa., in 1734, through his years in Kentucky and to his death in St. Charles County, MO., in 1820.

Against the backdrop of the American Revolution, Daniel Boone explores an ordinary man living in extraordinary times who was destined to settle and defend the beautiful, but often fiercely unforgiving, wilderness of Kentucky, “the dark and bloody ground.”

With the assistance of noted Boone scholars, the production utilizes original Boone documents and every known portrait of Boone, along with a vast number of paintings of Boone’s exploits, Cherokee and Shawnee warriors, and frontier life.

In addition, re-enactments of crucial periods in Boone’s life, which feature more than 150 actors, follow his explorations of Kentucky, the first attempts at settlement, the opening of the Wilderness Road, the Revolutionary War in Kentucky and the Ohio Valley — including the sieges of Boonesborough — and the disastrous Battle of Blue Licks.

With scenes filmed in Pennsylvania, Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Missouri, Daniel Boone continues through the frontiersman’s later life as a surveyor, tavern keeper, and even a legislator in Virginia.

Daniel Boone and the Opening of the American West was written, hosted, and directed by Kent Masterson Brown, and produced by Witnessing History. It also airs Wednesday, May 6 at 8/7 pm, Sunday, May 10 at 2/1 pm and 8/7 pm, and other times throughout the month on the Kentucky Channel.

Today’s KET: Making Connections

Shae HopkinsKET Executive Director and CEO

Sincerely,

22 May 2015

SHORT TAKES

One of the best pieces of feedback we receive is when viewers say something they watched on KET led them on a path of discovery. From finding the direction to advance one’s education or career to simply being inspired to make a delicious meal, the journeys that begin with our programs are many and varied.

Of late, I’ve been giving a lot of thought to those journeys related to making connec-tions.

Like many of you, my family and I have been moved by programs on KET to research and connect with our personal his-tory (It turns out my fifth great-grandfather, William Cave, came to Kentucky in 1781 and helped found Woodford County!). There are programs like Genealogy Roadshow and Finding Your Roots that speak directly to tracing genealogical history. And two of our most popular series — Antiques Roadshow and KET’s local version of it, Kentucky Collectibles — often feature intriguing family stories.

And then people like Diana Gold, this month’s Making a Difference feature, remind us that just as important as our connection to where we came from is our connection to where we are now.

Our hope always is that our programs are not an end unto themselves but a beginning. Discover your own connections. Travel your own journeys.

Attend the appraisal fair May 30!With a $100 donation to KET, you can attend this

year’s Kentucky Collectibles appraisal fair on Saturday, May 30 at the Frazier History Museum in Louisville.

One ticket allows one person to bring in up to two items to be appraised by our experts. Join us and your story and treasure may be featured on the fourth season of KET’s Kentucky Collectibles.

For tickets register online at KET.org/kycollectibles or call (800) 866-0366.

Veteran broadcaster and WKYT-TV/Lexington anchor Bill Bryant has been named permanent host of KET’s Comment on Kentucky.

Bryant, who had been serving as an inter-im host, succeeds Ferrell Wellman and origi-nating host Al Smith.

“I spend the week in a busy Kentucky newsroom keeping up with what’s going on, and then we gather some of the state’s best journalists to talk about what happened and where we may be headed,” said Bryant. “It’s an honor and a challenge to facilitate an informed discussion of news, timely issues, and challenges facing the Commonwealth.”

“Bill’s enthusiasm, work ethic and knowledge of the subject matter he covers have long earned him a much-deserved reputation as one of our area’s most respected and trusted journalists,” said KET Executive Director and CEO Shae Hopkins. “As he has been doing in an interim role, Bill will continue keeping KET audiences well informed through in-depth analysis and discussion of the key news affecting our state each week.”

A native of Williamsburg, Bryant attended the University of the Cumberlands before earning his degree in broadcasting and political science from Eastern Kentucky University.
