New York, N.Y. — June 1, 2022 — American Documentary, Inc., the nonprofit organization behind the award-winning series ‘POV’ and ‘America ReFramed,’ hosted the fifth annual Wyncote Fellowship program this May leading up to the virtual 2022 PBS Annual Meeting.

Administered by American Documentary, the Wyncote Fellowship is a collaboration between PBS Indies partners with filmmakers nominated by POV, Firelight Media, ITVS, Reel South, America ReFramed, WORLD Channel, and the National Multicultural Alliance. Made possible with support from Wyncote Foundation, the program helps independent filmmakers better understand the public media landscape through one-on-one meetings and curated events.

“Wyncote Foundation has been proud to support this fellowship initiative since its inception in 2017,” said David Haas, vice-chair. “We’re truly heartened to see the growing engagement between independent producers and PBS station leadership, in service to public media’s mission to bring diverse voices to local communities and national audiences.”

Wyncote Fellows participated in small group sessions, station networking, and a panel discussion with PBS VP of Programming and Operations Adaora Udoji, and PBS Senior Director, Programming Development Wendy Llinas and who offered a behind-the-scenes look at their work with programming and PBS digital studios. The program was also featured as part of the official PBS Annual Meeting as part of a breakout session: “Meet the Filmmakers: Wyncote Fellows and the Future of Public Media.” Several fellows have upcoming programs on POV and America ReFramed, including Ann Kaneko, Kevin Shaw, Reid Davenport, Naim Naif, Margaret Bowman, Josh Chuck, and Harry Chuck.
