About KAET
KAET, a part of Arizona State University, has been bringing viewers quality programming for more than 40 years. With more than 1.4 million people watching the station each week, KAET consistently ranks among the most-viewed public television stations in the country.
A trusted community resource, KAET enriches the lives of Arizonans through quality programs and educational services that inform, inspire and entertain. KAET's daily children's programming helps children start school ready to learn. Each year, more than 300,000 K-12 students watch programs distributed to classrooms by KAET in partnerships with ASSET (Arizona School Services through Educational Technology). Our GED programs help adults get their high school diplomas, and many students earn college credits through Arizona State University telecourses.
In April 2001, thanks to member support and a series of federal matching grants, KAET began broadcasting simultaneously in both analog (KAET) and digital (KAET-DT). Our new equipment enables us to multicast (broadcast multiple channels at the same time) and to broadcast programs in high definition.
In addition to airing programs distributed nationally by PBS, KAET produces its own award-winning programs. Especially noteworthy are HORIZON, an acclaimed nightly public affairs program, and The Arizona Collection, a continuing series of programs celebrating the people, places and history of Arizona.
Kolb Brothers: Grand Canyon Pioneers is the newest addition to The Arizona Collection, which also includes Arizona Memories from the'60s, Southwest Symphony, Over Arizona, Ranch Album and the Emmy Award-winning Barry Goldwater: Photographs & Memories, Thieves of Time, Images of Arizona and Legends & Dreamers: Inspired by Arizona Highways.
