Paula,
How very cool -- a genealogy reality show type thing! I can't wait to see
it -- looks like they have some interesting folks doing it, too....
And PBS with Meryl Streep should be awesome as well! Thanks for posting
it -- otherwise I would have missed it!!

Hi Everyone-
Genealogy is going Hollywood!
NBC has announced their upcoming series "Who Do You Think You Are". It
premieres March 5th 7 p.m. Central Time. The series features seven different
celebrities tracing their "roots". Check for your local time and station.
More can been seen about this series at

PBS is starting a series by the name of "Faces of America" which begins
this Wednesday, February 10th 9:00 p.m. CT. Henry Louis Gates JR. will be
presenting and describing genealogical histories which includes Merryl Streep,
Mario Batali, Yo-yo Ma, Queen Noor, Kristi Yamaguchi, and others. You can
find more information at their website

I think these two programs are going to give genealogy a real boost!
