The Stories We Tell
Public Television in Southern California
Won’t You Be My Neighbor?
For more than 50 years, public television has been a part of the Southern California landscape, sharing important stories with our communities and connecting us not only locally, but nationally and globally as well. KCET and PBS SoCal, now united to form the Public Media Group of Southern California, continue their public media commitment to inspire, educate and foster understanding through the important stories they tell.
The 2019 lecture series will showcase some of the best of the KCET and PBS SoCal experience. We will explore the impact public television has on our community through the narratives of three acclaimed series and their creators.
Join us for the second program in the series, Won’t You Be My Neighbor? A showing of the acclaimed documentary about the life and kindness of Fred Rogers.
The lecture series is co-hosted by the Los Angeles City Historical Society and the History Department of the Central Library.
