Description
Mitch Albom (born 1958) is a well-known American writer, journalist, screenwriter, playwright, radio and television host, and musician, whose books have sold more than 39 million copies worldwide. “Tuesdays with Morrie” (1997) is a book that chronicles the author’s weekly meetings with his former sociology professor, 78-year-old Morrie Schwartz, who is dying from an incurable disease. Every Tuesday, Mitch drove from Michigan to Massachusetts and had in-depth conversations with Morrie about life and death, love and friendship, and about true and false values. Trying to find a way to pay for Morrie’s medical bills, Mitch decided to publish a book about these meetings. Initially released in a small run, “Tuesdays…” entered The New York Times bestseller list thanks to being mentioned on Oprah Winfrey’s show—and then spent a long time at the top. Reissued many times and translated into more than 40 languages, Albom’s book in 1999 became the literary basis for an eponymous film starring Jack Lemmon as Morrie (Emmy Award) and Hank Azaria as Mitch.
