American Public Media Group

American Public Media Group (APMG) operates as a nonprofit parent organization, centralizing administrative, financial, and human resources services for its public media entities. This enables its constituents, such as American Public Media and Minnesota Public Radio, to produce and distribute public media content. APMG ensures operational stability across its network.

William "Bill" Kling founded Minnesota Public Radio in 1967, establishing the organization's roots. Kling envisioned a robust, listener-supported platform for quality audio content. This vision materialized with American Public Media Group's formal establishment in 2000 as a nonprofit parent, consolidating operational support and ensuring financial stability for its public media.

Millions of public media listeners nationwide benefit from APMG's robust support. Its mission focuses on securing long-term financial strength for its entities, fostering a connected America built on trust and understanding. APMG remains committed to enabling its public media outlets to continually inform, include, and inspire diverse audiences.
