Two of the latest documentaries by longtime city of Burbank employee
and Glendale resident Peter Musurlian will air back-to-back on PBS in
Los Angeles this week.
Musurlian, an Emmy- and Golden Mike award-winning journalist and
documentary filmmaker, is the station manager and senior producer at
the city of Burbank's television channel where he produces new reports
for "Burbank On Demand" and contributes to "What's New in Burbank."
He recently produced, shot, wrote, narrated and edited two
Armenian-themed films -- "Historic Armenia" and "The 100-Year-Old
Survivor" -- which will air on KCTV-LA.
"Historic Armenia" documents Musurlian's travels in 2013 alongside 25
other Armenian Americans to what is now eastern Turkey, showing what
remains of the historic, ancient Armenian homeland.
"The 100-Year-Old Survivor" tells the story of the late Glendale
resident and Armenian Genocide survivor Ghazaros Kademian, who turned
100 in May 2007, as he worked to get the United States government to
officially recognize the atrocities, which began in 1915 under the
Ottoman Empire in what is now the Republic of Turkey and are regarded
as the first genocide of the 20th century.
The films will air from 5 to 7 p.m. on Sunday, with an encore from 8
to 10 p.m. on April 21.
