A nonprofit organization is awarding creatives who affirm the highest values of the human spirit.
“The Christophers,” founded by Maryknoll priest Father James Keller, is rooted in service to God and humanity.
The awards were created in 1949, but since then, the people behind more than 1500 films, books, and TV programs have been recognized.
The 75th Annual Christopher Awards recently announced their winners.
Brooklyn author Torrey Maldonado was one of those creatives.
It’s actually Maldonado’s second time winning this prestigious award.
His most recent award-winning book is called “Hands.”
Maldonado joined Currents News to talk more about it.
