KSDK’s 75th anniversary

KSDK’s 75th anniversary banner show

To commemorate the station’s milestone 75th anniversary, I created a traveling history exhibit that toured the St. Louis metropolitan area.


The following are links to long-form content I produced in conjunction with the banner show above. Each banner represented a decade of KSDK’s history. At the bottom, a QR code allowed readers to read and watch more stories from that decade.
