Subject: E.O. Wilson on NOVA

NOVA is excited to partner with organizations that share our passion for 
scientific discovery as we spread the word about upcoming shows. On 
Tuesday, May 20, we invite you to join us for a look at the life and work 
of renowned Harvard entomologist and conservationist E.O. Wilson. From his 
groundbreaking discoveries about ant culture to his controversial take on 
the biological basis for human behavior, NOVA presents a sweeping 
chronicle of Wilson's extraordinary career. In six decades exploring 
treasure- troves of biodiversity across the globe, Wilson has discovered 
more than 300 new species and emerged as an outspoken environmental 
advocate, fighting to preserve the astonishing diversity of our planet for 
the next generation of naturalists.

"Lord of the Ants" will premiere Tuesday, May 20 at 8 pm ET/PT on most PBS 
stations. To check your local listings, please visit:

You can also learn more about Wilson's career--and get a close-up look at 
some of the planet's wildest ant varieties--at:

We hope you will help us get the word out about "Lord of the Ants" by 
passing the attached e-card on to friends and colleagues who might want to 
tune in. Thank you!

Best wishes, NOVA
