Ep. 084 – Woman of Vision: Sylvia Bugg

In this episode, host Sandra Abrams sits down with another of WIFV’s 2024 Woman of Vision honorees, Sylvia Bugg. As the Chief Programming Executive and General Manager of General Audience Programming for PBS, Bugg shares insight into why she is a life-long learner, how her previous experience at Discovery and CPB shaped her, and what leadership skills she brings to her position. She also explains the PBS opportunity for media content creators to support long and short form documentaries produced and created by diverse/BIPOC filmmakers and what she “envisioned” for her career when she first started out in the media business. WIFV honored Sylvia Bugg in May 2024 at its annual Women of Vision event, held at the National Museum of Women in the Arts.
