BONO'S SURRENDER RECEIVES AUDIOBOOK OF THE YEAR
AT THE AUDIO PUBLISHERS ASSOCIATION'S 2024 AUDIE AWARDS®    

Billie Fulford-Brown Receives Best Fiction Narrator Award;
Dion Graham Wins Best Non-Fiction Narrator Award

Leslie Jones, Mary Louise Kelly, Jon Klassen, Audra McDonald, Michelle Obama, Meryl Streep, and Patrick Stewart Among this Year's Winners

LOS ANGELES, March 5, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Last night, the Audio Publishers Association (APA) unveiled the winners of the 2024 Audie Awards® at its premier awards program which recognizes distinction in audiobooks and spoken-word entertainment. The annual ceremony took place at the Avalon Hollywood in LA and was hosted by Academy Award nominated screenwriter and actor Nia Vardalos. Additionally, Lake Bell (2024 Audie Award finalist), Felicia Day (2024 Audie Award winner), and Samira Wiley (2021 Audie Award finalist) served as presenters.

Bono's Surrender, which he authored and narrated, published by Penguin Random House Audio, earned the top honor of the evening, Audiobook of the Year. Billie Fulford-Brown was awarded the Best Fiction Narrator Award for Hazel Gaynor's The Last Lifeboat, which was published by Penguin Random House Audio. Dion Graham won Best Non-Fiction Narrator Award for Jonathan Eig's King: A Life, which was published by Macmillan Audio. Fulford-Brown and Graham's wins in these categories mark the first for the newly established categories which replaced the Best Male Narrator and Best Female Narrator categories – two of the top awards that recognize the importance of performance in audio storytelling – to reflect the APA's commitment to inclusivity and diversity.
