On October 2, 1961, WHRO-TV broadcast its first "tele-lesson" in Hampton Roads. In celebration of 50 years in broadcasting and educational programming, we bring you a retrospective of WHRO from its humble beginnings as an education television station to its community engagement initiatives of today. Many of the key players in WHRO's half-century history, like Vince Thomas, John Morison, Virginia Biittner, and Jim Newsom are interviewed as we showcase footage from our archives not seen in decades! Hosted by HearSay's Cathy Lewis, you'll also see behind-the-scene photos and video of WHRO through the years as it has become a Hampton Roads institution for not only education, but the community.
