2023 seemed to be our year of PBS-TV Specials – shows that feature subjects very dear to our hearts here at Our Iowa Heritage. In February 2023, Iowa-PBS debuted a one-hour special on Meredith Willson – America’s Music Man. And then, on April 1, 2023, PBS-Wisconsin debuted John McGivern’s Main Street – Iowa City, Iowa!
We were honored to play a small part in both of these amazing PBS programs – sharing a bit of our Iowa stories with the many wonderful viewers of Iowa-PBS and PBS-Wisconsin. Wow guys – you did a bang up job covering our favorite place – Iowa City – and to think that this show was produced by a bunch of Wisconsin Badgers! Amazing!
