      Meryl Streep, Bono, Michelle Williams, Dolly Parton, Michelle Obama, Sheryl Lee Ralph, January LaVoy, "Weird Al" Yankovic, and Dion Graham Among the Illustrious List of Finalists

      NEW YORK, Jan. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Today, the Audio Publishers Association (APA) announced finalists for the 2024 Audie Awards®, the premier awards program recognizing distinction in audiobooks and spoken-word entertainment. Full list of finalists below. Winners across 27 competitive categories will be revealed at the Audie Awards Gala on March 4 in Los Angeles.

      "On behalf of the Audio Publishers Association, we congratulate all of our Audie Awards finalists," exclaimed Sean McManus, president of the APA. "As we gather on March 4 to honor the art of human narration, the remarkable display of talent and creativity that breathes life into these audiobooks is truly inspiring. We're also proud to announce category reforms and recognitions that reflect the rich tapestry of the world of audio and literary entertainment."

      In a change that reflects the APA's commitment to inclusivity and diversity, the Best Male Narrator and Best Female Narrator categories – two of the top awards that recognize the importance of performance in audio storytelling – have been transformed to Best Fiction Narrator and Best Non-Fiction Narrator.

      At this year's ceremony the APA will also recognize audiobooks that not only captivated listeners but also became cultural phenomenons. This year's inaugural APA Choice honorees include "Fourth Wing," "Never Finished," "Spare," "The Covenant of Water," and "The Woman in Me."
