Michael is an author, columnist, and Anglican priest. He hosted a nightly television and radio show for 15 years, and he’s now a columnist for The Toronto Star and a frequent contributor to numerous Canadian and British newspapers and magazines. He’s the best-selling author of 20 books, including biographies of J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, and has received numerous awards, including the Ed Murrow Award for Radio Broadcasting, the RTNDA Radio Broadcasting Award, the Communicator Award in Hollywood, and in 2012 was awarded the Queen’s Jubilee Medal for services to media. His writing has been praised by Sir Diarmaid MacCulloch, Professor of Church History at Oxford University as, "By turns witty, angry, rueful and moving, Michael’s passionate foray into theology and contemporary society is hugely valuable”. Actor and writer Stephen Fry commented, “I live on the other side of the faith divide from Michael, but that doesn’t prevent intense admiration of his insight, clarity, courage and honesty. These essays reveal the integrity, wit and passion of a fine advocate for the best of Christian thought and a faith that encompasses the human as well as the divine.” His latest book, a memoir, is entitled Diary of a Low-Born Cleric.
