Lenny Henry

Audible Sessions: FREE Exclusive Interview

By: Holly Newson

Narrated by: Lenny Henry

Joining us at the Audible studios is Sir Lenny Henry, actor, writer, presenter and comedian.

Henry has spent decades in the British public eye on television, on our radios, big screens and as a stand-up comedian, often touring internationally. He co-founded Comic Relief in 1985 and has taken part in almost every year’s show since then, the charity raising over £1 billion so far! Henry has documented his career in his books, and most recently penned Rising to the Surface, which takes a look at his hectic life during the ‘80s and ‘90s.

We spoke to Sir Lenny Henry about doing comedy in America, his very first film, starting comic relief, and how he has dealt with grief.
