Prostate Cancer Research Institute awarded Steve Hentzen the 2017 Harry Pinchot Award for his dedication and support for the prostate cancer community.  

 

Harry Pinchot was widely recognized as one of the most knowledgeable prostate cancer advocate in the biology, prevention and treatment of prostate cancer. Pinchot made a positive impact on the lives of countless men afflicted by prostate cancer, and their loved ones, through his efforts at the Prostate Cancer Research Institute (PCRI). 

 

He served as PCRI’s Program Director for over a decade, and was known as “Helpline Harry” because he was always taking calls from concerned prostate cancer patients. His devotion to the mission of educating men and highlighting the plight of those affected by the disease has earned him national recognition.
