PIONEER PBS | GRANITE FALLS, MN POSTCARDS Start of Season January 27, 2022 13 Episodes
DESCRIPTION: Capturing the lives of local artists and reliving the cultural history of our viewing area. “We are beyond grateful to the entire Pioneer PBS Postcards team who worked for months to produce a 20-minute Emmy Award-Winning story based on a WWII bestseller, “40 Thieves on Saipan.” Their interview questions, editing and graphics told the mostly untold story about Silver Star recipient Lt. Frank Tachovsky and his U.S. Marine Corps platoon in an entertaining, educational and memorable way.” Liz H. Kelly, Santa Monica, CA “My PBS Postcard feature exposed my work to new audiences and elevated my artistic vision that narrative has the power for social change in our increasingly diverse rural communities of Minnesota to resounding positive responses.” Kandace Creel Falcón
Postcards continues to innovate storytelling methods that best showcase our regional artists and historic stories. We collaborate with folk arts schools preserving traditional art styles, we listen to communities that bring forward little known histories and highlight the local history, cultural diversity, and showcase the relevance of small town and rural stories for all Minnesotans.
40 Thieves on Saipan, at ease.
