Daniel Radcliffe Given Trevor Project Hero Award

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe on Monday was honored by The Trevor Project for his gay rights advocacy.

Radcliffe, who has moved from his movie role as the magical wizard Harry Potter to performing in the Broadway revival of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, was given the group's Trevor Hero Award.

The California-based organization focuses on crisis and suicide prevention efforts for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth. The non-profit runs the nation's only 24-hour, toll free confidential suicide prevention hotline for gay and questioning youth.
