Dear WNIT Investors:
Yes, investors! And, thank you for that! “Viewers Like You” make up WNIT’s largest revenue
source. We appreciate your support to our organization which places the educational and public
service value of programs above all. We prioritize investing your donations into national and
locally produced content.
While we have a change of seasons coming in September, we will remain in election season into
November. You can continue to count on WNIT and PBS to be your primary source of balanced
political coverage. You will find highlights and listings for several election-oriented programs in
this WNIT Planner. However, I want to make particular note of a special Frontline on Tuesday,
September 27 at 9pm. Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are two of the most polarizing
presidential candidates in recent history. Frontline’s “The Choice 2016” is a two-hour interwoven
investigative biography of Clinton and Trump which draws on dozens of interviews from friends,
family, advisors and adversaries, as well as authors, journalists and political insiders. This is
powerful and trustworthy journalism from PBS.
One of our more popular local productions is WNIT’s Legends of Michiana series. For the past
few years, we have selected 2-3 individuals/families/organizations per year who have made a
significant impact in Michiana. On Thursday, September 22 at 8pm, we will feature Dr. Dane
Miller, a co-founder of Biomet corporation in Kosciusko County and a benefactor to many
organizations throughout the region. The following Thursday, September 29 at 8pm, we will
feature Merlin Hanson of Berrien County, a regional entrepreneur and philanthropist. These
are interesting and inspiring stories you will enjoy.
What is a great way to get most out of your WNIT membership? By providing your email address.
We often have free event ticket offers that, because of their timeliness, only get communicated to
members via email. If we don’t have your email address, we can’t keep you informed! We promise
not to abuse the use of your email address, nor share it with anyone.
Poldark alert! Season 2 of Poldark premieres Sunday, September 25 at 8pm and Hamilton’s
America premieres Friday, October 21.
On November 2, WNIT will launch a new weekly program on education in Michiana. I like to
say that WNIT stands for education. This internet-based and broadcast program will include
insightful features about education in Michiana and the cycle of lifelong learning. Lots more to
come in your November-December Planner.
Enjoy your September-October schedule of great programming from WNIT – your Michiana
PBS station. Thank you for all the support you give us.
Best wishes,
Greg Giczi
President & General Manager

Poldark Returns For a Second Season
In 18th century Cornwall, times are as tough as the rocky shoreline: unemployment, hunger,
and sickness are widespread among the working class, while the wealthy landowners prosper.
Only one man dares to defy the status quo, and he is behind bars.
After a new generation of viewers fell in love with adventurer Ross Poldark, Season One’s tragic
cliffhanger left fans everywhere reeling. What will become of our swashbuckling hero? Can the
ever-resilient Demelza find a way to save him?
Poldark, Season 2 premieres with a 2-hour episode at a special time: Sunday, September 25 at 8pm and
continues Sundays, October 2 - November 27 at 9pm on WNIT Public Television Channel 34.1.

WNIT to present two new documentaries in the Legends of Michiana Series – Dane Miller & Merlin Hanson.
Legends of Michiana:
Dane Miller – Brilliant
Mind, Humble Man, Friend
Legends of Michiana:
Merlin Hanson –
Still Just a Toolmaker
Dane Miller set out to do things differently from very early on in his
career. While working on his doctoral thesis, any time he could spend
on his sailboat was considered his “anti-thesis time” and the name
Antithesis stuck for that boat, and all the boats that followed. In his
approach to orthopedics, management and community redevelopment
in the Warsaw, Indiana area, being the ‘antithesis’ of the status quo
was an invaluable asset. He was an innovator, an engineer, a passionate
supporter of his colleagues and a friend and collaborator to orthopedic
surgeons. The ripples of Dane’s impact are felt around the world with
countless people walking around with new knees and hips thanks to
his work. Beyond Biomet, Dane invested in his community. He valued
the entire community and knew that to attract the best and brightest
employees; he had to have an area that was appealing to families and
young professionals.
Born in South Bend, Indiana, Mr.
Hanson began a career in the tool
and die business following a brief
time spent in the Navy. After 50
years of wonderful experiences and
having met people in high positions,
Merlin Hanson is proud to say that
he is still “Just a Toolmaker.”
Dane and Mary
Louise married in
1966 and began
a partnership
that lasted nearly
50 years. From
race cars to
boats, colleges
to community
development,
Dane and Mary Louise have changed the lives of so many people in
Indiana and around the world. Mary Louise continues the work of the
Dane Miller Foundation and takes her responsibilities of maintaining
Dane’s legacy as her most important job.
WNIT is proud to present this biographical feature of Dane and
show how an engineer, philanthropist, and community leader has
reinvented orthopedics, his community and left a lasting impression on
those he met. "Dane Miller – Brilliant Mind, Humble Man, Friend”
airs on Thursday, September 22nd at 8pm and, again, Sunday,
September 25th at 6pm on WNIT channel 34.1.
30
Merlin’s own words have helped
guide this process. He wrote a
short biography that details the
lives of his parents who were both
deaf and his childhood in South Bend. Whether it was working in
the garden with his Aunt Ruth or building things in shop class, he
relished any opportunity to work with his hands and that fostered
his sense of accomplishment and desire to create. Merlin and his
longtime friend, Dan Hillegas, founded Weldun Industries, a tool and
die shop that originally employed 3 people and went on to be sold to
Bosch Corporation of Germany. Following his success with Weldun,
Merlin went on to acquire and run cold storage, beverage and other
mold fabrication enterprises. Keeping it in the family, his children are
involved at many levels of each of his businesses.
Merlin and his wife Carolyn married in 1982 and together have taken
very active roles as philanthropists and leaders in the community. They
are avid art collectors and have donated a bulk of their collection to be
displayed at The Mendel Center at Lake Michigan College. One of their
most recent endeavors is the Merlin & Carolyn Hanson Hospice Center
at Lakeland Health that provides hospice care to patients and their
families. Merlin is also passionate about yachting and he and Carolyn
own seven yachts that they enjoy as they split their time between St.
Joseph, Michigan and Florida.
WNIT is proud to present this biographical feature of Merlin, showing
how an entrepreneur, philanthropist, and community leader has had a
major impact on our community, on Thursday, September 29 at 8pm
and Sunday, October 2 at 6pm on channel 34.1.

Great Performances Tells the Story of Hamilton’s America
The feature film documentary Hamilton’s America brings history to vivid life
through the contemporary perspective of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s revolutionary
hip-hop musical, Hamilton. The story of Alexander Hamilton is most
remembered for its dramatic conclusion, in which Hamilton was killed in a
duel by Vice President Aaron Burr, but his immeasurable contributions to
modern society have largely been forgotten by today’s general public. Just in
time for election year, Hamilton’s America will provide a primetime audience
with intimate access to Miranda and his colleagues during the two years
leading up to the Broadway opening of the Tony Award-winning smash hit
musical. This “hip-hop-historical” documentary features a young, dynamic
cast of actors as our guides, along with commentary from some of today’s most
notable thinkers and artists, brushing the dust off America’s fascinating early
history. The most buzzed-about show in years and the hottest ticket in decades,
Hamilton is redefining how audiences learn about history, but also how they
engage with these timeless issues. Produced by Academy Award® and Emmy®Winning producers RadicalMedia.
Great Performances: America’s Hamilton airs Friday, October 21, 9 on WNIT
Public Television.

“I want to see
the arts continue
to flourish because
it’s beautiful…and
it’s important.”
Betsy Ashton appreciates the
PBS programs that have
inspired a new generation of
talented people to become artists. She believes PBS shares
her values. That’s why she’s
included her PBS station in
her will.

Spotlight
Mary Horan
Mary Horan has been a Director’s Circle member since 2014 . While she is devoted to most of the PBS mainstays
like Masterpiece Theatre and mysteries like Inspector Lewis, she also enjoys documentaries and, of course, Rick Steves.
Mary supports WNIT because of the programs she enjoys, but perhaps more so because of WNIT’s commitment to
early childhood education programming.
Mary is the director of marketing and public relations at Lake City Bank in Warsaw and lives at the Village at Winona Lake. Though she came to
the area by way of North Carolina a few years ago, Mary grew up in Detroit, Michigan. She has enjoyed being closer to her family and settling into
the scenic Winona Lake area.
WNIT thanks Mary for all of her time and effort in support of great local programming.
Directors’
Circle
The WNIT Directors’ Circle represents a very dedicated and select group of individuals who, by their commitment,
contribute to the total annual support which is the foundation of WNIT’s operating budget. These essential annual
contributions make possible the great programs that everyone in Michiana enjoys.
