Julie has been co-host of Almanac North since 1993, coming to the job with a solid news background in producing and reporting. Darren joined the Almanac North team in the Fall of 1997, bringing with him more than 15-years of broadcast experience.

Behind the scenes, producer Greg Grell is responsible for the content of each show and tackles the task of lining up guests and writing the scripts each week. Greg has been in the news business for over 20 years, and was hired by PBS eight in the summer of 1992 to create Almanac North. Director Nick Clingman is responsible for the on-air look of Almanac North and has been directing newscasts, designing and lighting studio sets, and editing videotape since the mid-90's.

Since the initial broadcasts in 1992, Almanac North has gained a reputation as the place to find in-depth information and discussion on some of the most important and interesting news stories of the week. So if you want the latest information, direct from the mouths of the "newsmakers", be sure to watch Almanac North live Friday night at 8, or catch a repeat broadcast Sunday afternoon at 4:30.
