| If you've ever seen a play or musical on PBS, chances are it's because of him. Jac Venza, who has died aged 97, was an American public television producer who was directly responsible for most of the theatre and music programs that have been seen on PBS from its creation in 1970. From the early 1960s until his retirement in 2005, Venza brought such programs as NET Playhouse, Live from Lincoln Center, American Playhouse, American Masters, and Great Performances to millions of viewers. He won a Personal Peabody Award in 1998. |
