AZPM's Emmy is for DeGrazia mural story

Congratulations to Arizona Public Media on their Emmy award! It's for their eight-minute story Restoring DeGrazia, which was Arizona Illustrated episode 407. The description says, in part:
A mysterious mural in a Tucson backyard turns out to be the largest Ted DeGrazia mural still in existence. It was originally painted by the artist in 1948 or 1949 and gives us a glimpse into DeGrazia’s mind before his fame and fortune.
Here's the whole video. If you'd like to skip to the mural story without the intro, scroll the player to 1:58…



Update (October 20, 2017): An article about the mural is in the October 2016 issue of Zócalo Magazine.
