Help us find public media’s rising stars

Current is launching a new initiative to shine a spotlight on up-and-coming talents who are making a difference in public media — for their organizations and for their audiences. We need your help to identify them and tell their stories. 

We are seeking nominations for professionals aged 35 and under who are doing great work in public media. They’ve introduced new ideas, new voices or new skills to their stations or organizations and are poised to influence how audiences experience, engage with or support public media. 

We encourage you to look across your organization when considering who to nominate. We welcome nominations of rising stars who bring diversity and work in different disciplines within public media. 

Tell us about your rising star by filling out the form below by midnight Wednesday, May 31. Nominators are limited to one entry.

We’ll use your suggestions to highlight the individuals and their work.
