Hearing is Seeing®
AMERICAN RADIOWORKS® is the national documentary unit of American Public Media. ARW is public radio's largest documentary production unit; it creates documentaries, series projects, and investigative reports for the public radio system and the Internet. ARW is based at St. Paul, Minnesota, with staff journalists in Washington D.C., Boston, Massachusetts, and Duluth, Minnesota.
- American RadioWorks produces hour-long documentaries distributed by American Public Media to public radio stations across the country.
- ARW produces shorter documentaries and series projects for news magazines, including All Things Considered, Morning Edition, Marketplace, and The World.
- Extensive online documentaries accompany all ARW radio projects, providing
background, original photography, interactive elements and streaming audio of the radio documentaries.
The American RadioWorks team includes some of the most accomplished names in public
radio journalism (see staff page).
ARW does not seek unsolicited proposals for documentary projects. We generally do not commission, acquire or distribute documentaries from independent or station-based producers. For more information please contact:
