Board of Directors & Staff
PMJA is member-led — and that's the whole point.
Our board is made up of public media journalists from across the country who bring their real-world experience to every decision. They set our strategic direction, champion member needs, and help ensure PMJA stays grounded in the work that actually matters to you.
Nominations for the 2026–2027 board are now open. This is your chance to bring your voice to the table — to help shape programming, advocate for your peers, and deepen your connection to the public media community.
