Will The Baltimore Sun have a new owner soon? Tribune Company says it has gotten offers, and it has hired investment bankers to evaluate those offers. We'll get reaction from inside the Sun newsroom … and we talk to former Baltimore County Executive Ted Venetoulis about putting together a local ownership group.

Then, Baltimore's Child magazine turns 30 this month. Tom Hall talks with publisher Joanne Giza about why – and how – she started it in her Charles Village home.

And Harriet Tubman, unyielding conductor on the Underground Railroad, died one hundred years ago this Sunday.  Bassist and composer Marcus Shelby tells us about one of many events marking the centennial – a performance of his jazz oratorio about Tubman’s life.
