The Fascinating Audio Documentary, Hosted by Journalist Florence Williams, is Available Exclusively on Audible Channels

The Alliance for Women in Media Foundation today announced that Audible’s original audio series Breasts Unbound will receive a Gracie Award in the category of Original Online Programming – Standalone Audio. The Gracie Award recognizes exemplary programming created by, for, and about women in all areas of media. This year’s Awards will be presented at the 42nd annual Gracie Awards Gala on June 6 at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.

“It is truly rewarding to be receiving a Gracie Award on a topic that spans culture, anthropology and medicine,” said Williams. “As a science journalist, it was an illuminating experience to feature characters who are so rich and varied – from cancer researchers to a Texas grandmother who agreed to be a guinea pig for the first implants. The Audible platform has opened up a new world for me; it helped me turn my vision into an audio program, and I learned how to write for sound. It was a privilege and it was also fun.”

“We are honored to be recognized by AWMF with the prestigious Gracie Award, and equally proud to be on the forefront of storytelling through the power of voice,” said Audible Chief Content Officer Andy Gaies. “Breasts Unbound gracefully blends science and personal anecdotes to challenge the choices we make every day, and unearth some groundbreaking facts.”

Launched on Audible Channels earlier this year, the eight-part series Breasts Unbound tackles myths and uncovers new facts on all things breasts-related. Interview subjects include The Naked Ape author Desmond Morris; an eight-year-old girl confronting hormonal imbalances; and Chelsea Handler, who candidly discusses her own highly publicized breasts. Additional episodes reveal why there is an increase in larger breasts in men and women today, and how trans women are learning to lactate.
