National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (daytime, sports, childrens and family, news and documentary)
Founded in 1957, the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) recognizes excellence in television with the coveted Emmy Award for News & Documentary, Sports, Daytime, Public Service and Technology. NATAS, which operates independently of the Television Academy in Los Angeles, is dedicated to the advancement of the arts and sciences of television and promotion of creative leadership for artistic, educational and technical achievements within these sectors of television industry.
The National Academy membership is made up of television professionals from twenty regional chapters. Each chapter hosts regional awards for non-national programming.
Regional Chapters
Nineteen chapters of the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, located across the United States, conduct regional awards to recognize excellence in all the regional television markets. The sole exception is the Los Angeles Area; it is the original body that started the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, and is still part of that organization. Members of the Los Angeles Area peer group administer regional membership for the greater Los Angeles area, and awards for that region.
