“Public broadcasting is something I am very dedicated to supporting. I truly believe that to empower people, they must have opportunities to learn and experience the world around them. Houston Public Media gives children and adults access to educational programming and classical music, which can enlighten them. In particular, I like that classical music can be easily accessed by anyone; it’s a medium I believe can resonate with people, and spark reasoning and creativity. I’ve valued my time with the ACB this last year; I am ready to continue my contribution to maintaining and growing the presence of public media in Houston, and further enriching our community,” says Ron Rand, President & CEO of Rand Group.
