I had occasion to be in the KTWU studio this week and in the lobby I photographed this 2005 Heartland Region Emmy Award that the station won for the Elvera Voth Plains People segment (which, coincidentally, replayed on Sunflower Journeys Thursday evening and therefore should be on again today – Saturday – at 5 p.m. in our area, Channel 11.)

Four KTWU programs are up for Heartland Regional Emmy Awards in 2010. Results will be announced July 18.

Nominations are for:

SUNFLOWER JOURNEYS: THE BLOODY BENDERS for Historical/Cultural/Segment – Jim Kelly, Producer

I’VE GOT ISSUES for Community Affairs Program – Dave Kendall, Eugene Williams, Val VanDerSluis, Producers; Jim Kelly, Director; John Njagi, Set Design and Graphics

SUNFLOWER JOURNEYS: PLAINS PEOPLE, JOE WHITE for Community Affairs Segment – John Njagi, Producer/Director

DRACULA, THE RADIO PLAY for Entertainment Program – Jim Kelly, Producer/Director; Valerie VanDerSluis, Producer; Philip Grecian, Playwright

One of the shows up for an award this year, I’ve Got Issues, is the pilot show that I gave a commentary on, so yay!
