Adah Sorensen was born in 1927,
the youngest of four children.
The only girl in the bunch,
Adah was determined to stand out from the crowd.
With a clever sense of humor,
Adah was as precocious as she was creative.
She played piano, volunteered in her community
and later found her calling in theater design.
That passion for the arts
overflowed into her love for PBS Wisconsin,
from the humor of Fawlty Towers,
to the costumes of Downton Abbey.
When she passed in 2015, PBS Wisconsin was honored
to receive an extraordinary gift from her estate.
Her gift allows us to continue bringing the best in arts,
drama and much more, for generations to come.
We're proud to celebrate the life and generosity
of Adah Sorensen.
Thank you, Adah.
