Reach an influential audience with TV’s most respected news documentary series
As PBS’ premier public affairs series, Frontline's stature is reaffirmed each week through incisive documentaries covering the scope and complexity of the human, social and political experience.
Sample Programs
The Old Man and the Storm
Six months after Hurricane Katrina slammed into New Orleans, producer June Cross came across 83-year-old Herbert Gettridge working alone on his home in the lower Ninth Ward, a neighborhood devastated when the levees broke in August 2005. Over the next two years, Cross would document the story of the extended Gettridge clan — an African-American family with deep roots in New Orleans — as they struggled to rebuild their homes and their lives.
My Father, My Brother and Me
Frontline and ITVS explore the scientific, ethical and political debate that surrounds Parkinson’s disease — a chronic, degenerative neurological disorder that affects about one million Americans. Beginning with the story of his own Parkinson’s diagnosis several years ago, correspondent Dave Iverson sets out on a personal journey to understand a disease that scientists believe could hold the key to unlocking the secrets of the rest of the major brain diseases that afflict millions each year.
