My Story

Christopher Howard's journey in the world of visual storytelling began at the age of 13, honing his craft in his grandfather's photography studio. Captivated by the art of imagery, he discovered his passion for creating compelling visuals. Upon relocating to New York, he ventured into videography, delving deeper into the realm of visual media.

His impressive career has seen him collaborate with renowned networks such as MTV, BET, and TV One, leaving his mark on iconic venues like the Apollo Theater. Working alongside esteemed brands like Tory Burch, Allure Magazine, and Stella Artois, Christopher has consistently demonstrated his creative prowess.

His portfolio boasts an array of celebrity portraits, including luminaries like President Bill Clinton, Quincy Jones, and the late Dr. Maya Angelou, making him the last artist to capture her essence through his lens. Christopher's work extends beyond the glitz of celebrity culture, with contributions to independent news outlets like VICE News.

In 2016, he pioneered the establishment of the first media film unit at the New York City Department of Correction, Rikers Island, crafting the documentary "We Were There," recognized by the 9/11 Museum in New York City. His dedication to storytelling garnered him a Peabody Award in 2017 for his work on "Maya Angelou: And Still I Rise."

Transitioning to the digital landscape, Christopher joined FOXNEWS in 2018, spearheading the digital originals team and contributing as a writer, amassing over 6 billion page views. His innovative approach to content creation led him to Peloton in 2020, where he served as Executive Producer, shaping the company's original content strategy. His role expanded in 2021 to Senior Director of Original Content, focusing on Peloton's diverse entertainment offerings.

In 2022, Christopher assumed the role of Head of Production at Eg Plus Worldwide, a prominent Omnicom production company, overseeing commercial production across North America. His multifaceted career continues to thrive, leaving an indelible mark on the world of visual storytelling.
