Local premiere of In the Americas with David Yetman Saturdays at 2:30 p.m. starting May 5 on PBS-HD 6 with encores on Ready TV Tuesdays at 9:30 p.m. starting May 15
In the Americas with David Yetman, the new HDTV series by award-winning producer/director Dan Duncan and internationally recognized writer/host/producer David Yetman, takes a fresh look at the lands that make up much of the Western Hemisphere. Each country contains landscapes, peoples, and history that have not received the attention they deserve on the world stage. In the Americas with David Yetman is presented nationally through Arizona Public Media to American Public Television.
Season One begins with “Day of the Dead: A Mexican Celebration.”
The series introduces us to people from all walks of life and lets them tell their stories, show us their homes and work, and tell us how they came to be who they are. It shows the histories of natives and immigrants, islanders and mainlanders, rural folk and city-dwellers. In the Americas with David Yetman undertakes a new approach to travel and adventure—with a decided bias in favor of our western continents and islands. So come along and visit new places, meet new people and encounter new ideas with host Dave Yetman.
In the Americas with David Yetman is produced by the Southwest Center at the University of Arizona College of Social and Behavioral Sciences.
