Beth Cole’s history of activism and social change dates back to the presidential campaigns of Bobby Kennedy and George McGovern. This demonstrated commitment caught the attention of McGovern’s campaign coordinator, Frank Mankiewicz, such that when he assumed the position of president, NPR, the federally financed radio network of news, public affairs and cultural programming for much of America, he brought Beth on with him. Beth eventually became a Vice-President of NPR.
