Julie Sanders is the new interim station manager of WTVP.
Sanders joined the Peoria public television station in 2016 as the marketing and content director. She's served as the public face of the station since the death of president and CEO Lesley Matuszak last week.
Sanders said Matuszak resigned from the station a day before she died.
Bill Baker was WTVP's last station manager. His retirement was announced in the station's March program guide.
The WTVP board of directors held a lengthy executive session during a special meeting on Monday morning. Before the executive session, board chairman Andrew Rand said only that the purpose of the meeting was to discuss "topics of the last three to four months."
