Maria Hinojosa event

 

Welcome to An Evening with World Renowned Journalist Maria Hinojosa!

Join us for an unforgettable evening and celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month with world-renowned journalist Maria Hinojosa, a trailblazer in independent, multimedia journalism. As the first Latina in many newsrooms, Hinojosa envisioned a space where the diverse American experience could be explored and uplifted. In 2010, she founded Futuro Media, a nonprofit organization dedicated to producing content that empowers individuals to navigate our increasingly diverse world.

With a career spanning nearly 30 years, Hinojosa has reported for PBS, CBS, WNBC, CNN, NPR, and hosted the Emmy Award-winning talk show Maria Hinojosa: One-on-One. She has authored two books and received numerous prestigious awards, including four Emmys, the John Chancellor Award, and the Ruben Salazar Lifetime Achievement Award from the NAHJ.
