The FRED rogers company was founded by FRED rogers in 1971 to produce mister rogers' neighborhood (television's longest-running program for children). Following its founder's death in 2003, the company has expanded to become a major supplier of childen's programming for PBS, with SIX series regularly broadcasted. Its signature property, daniel tiger's neighborhood, supports healthy emotional, social, and intellectual growth for the very youngest viewers, and embodies the philosophy and values of FRED rodgers. The FRED rogers company works in two broad areas:1. Creating engaging, educational content for young children in broadcast and digital media, including television, websites, and APPS. 2. Extending the impact of this content by partnering with others, including nonprofits, reasearch organizations, and PBS member stations, to provide resources to accompany its programs for parents, teachers, and other people who work with children.
