Company Overview

Minnesota Public Radio is one of the nation's premier public radio stations. Founded as a college station in 1967 at Saint John's University in Collegeville, Minnesota, it is today a regional network covering Minnesota and parts of Wisconsin, the Dakotas, Michigan, Iowa, Idaho and even Canada; a producer of more national programming than any other station-based public radio organization in the country; a producer of award-winning documentaries; and an increasingly sophisticated online service. It has won more than 800 journalism awards—including the Peabody Award and the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Gold Baton Award, in 2001.

Minnesota Public Radio serves a regional population of five million people, and with more than 83,000 members, it has the highest percentage of listener membership of any community-supported public radio network in the United States. With 650,000 listeners each week, it has the largest audience of any regional public radio network.

Minnesota Public Radio receives administrative, financial and human resource services from American Public Media Group (APMG), its parent support organization. APMG also supports the nonprofit Southern California Public Radio, and related for-profit organizations—including Minnesota Monthly Publications and the Greenspring Company.
