Life & Times (TV series)

Life & Times was a long-running award-winning local news magazine and public affairs series produced by and broadcast on KCET (PBS Los Angeles) from 1991 to 2007. Over its 16 years it won more than 25 L.A. Area Emmy awards, numerous Golden Mikes and many other awards. It was KCET's signature local program, airing weeknights, Monday through Friday, at 7pm.

Its most recent anchor was Val Zavala, vice president of news and public affairs for KCET. (She is now the anchor of KCET's new series called "SoCal Connected", a news magazine that will debut September 25, 2008 at 8pm.) Past "Life & Times" hosts have included Patt Morrison, Hugh Hewitt, Ruben Martinez, Kerman Maddox, Jess Marlow, Warren Olney, and Jerry Nachman.

Over its 16 years on the air "Life & Times" covered major issues such as politics, education, the environment, demographics, transportation, science, culture and arts. It also offered viewers profile, features, and interviews with authors, community leaders, elected officials, educators, artists, activists, actors and scholars.

The series was a popular addition to commercial news, offering viewers long-form journalism, in-depth stories, and profiles of people making a positive difference in their communities. It also had a website with transcripts of nearly every program available for free. (www.kcet.org/lifeandtimes)
