Corporation for Public Broadcasting, 1967-1996, undated

 Series 1

This series contains information pertaining to both specific programs and initiatives of the OIA and some material regarding general matters affecting the CPB. The series is in chronological order.

The OIA material includes memos, press releases, reports and summaries of OIA activities between 1991 and 1995 such as the formation of a U.S. public radio European service and the development of Public Radio International; the creation and operation of the U.S. Public Television International Consortium; and international co-production initiatives launched by the OIA (especially those with Asian public broadcasters). The series also contains photocopies of a large number of articles written by Stewart published in Current (1986-1994), written as part of his work with the OIA, regarding international public broadcasting and a much smaller number of relevant articles by other authors.

Material relating more generally to the CPB includes personnel documents regarding Stewart's career (1967-1974, undated); CPB memos, press releases and reports regarding restructuring of the CPB (1995-1996); staff meeting memos; and some newspaper clippings and a press release relating to a sexual harassment controversy at CPB in 1995.
