With an incredibly heavy heart we share some devastating PBS news. After a prolonged illness our longest-serving announcer, David Heard, passed away surrounded by loved ones on Sunday night.
This Thursday at 3pm we will re-broadcast his special 40th anniversary episode of Acid Country – one of the last programs Heardy presented live-to-air from his ‘home’ here at PBS’ Easey St studios. PBS has been inundated with messages of love, support and tributes for David. If you'd like to share yours with the PBS community, we welcome you to add it here.
We love you Heardy and will miss you dearly.
