Author, screenwriter, philanthropist, journalist and broadcaster Mitch Albom is an inspiration around the world. Albom is the author of numerous books of fiction and nonfiction, which have collectively sold more than forty million copies in forty-eight languages worldwide. He has written eight number-one New York Times bestsellers - including Tuesdays with Morrie, the bestselling memoir of all time, which topped the list for four straight years and celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2022. He has also written award-winning TV films, stage plays, screenplays, a nationally syndicated newspaper column, and a musical. He appeared for more than 20 years on ESPN, and was a fixture on The Sports Reporters. Through his work at the Detroit Free Press, he was inducted into both the National Sports Media Association and Michigan Sports halls of fame and was the recipient of the Red Smith Award for lifetime achievement.
Following his bestselling memoir, Finding Chika, and Human Touch, a weekly serial written and published online which raised nearly $1 million for pandemic relief, he returned to fiction with The Stranger in the Lifeboat, which debuted at #1 on the New York Times Bestsellers List after being #1 on Amazon. His much-anticipated new novel, set during the Holocaust, is coming in the fall of 2023.
Albom now spends the majority of his time in philanthropic work. Since 2006, he has operated nine charitable programs in southeast Michigan under his SAY Detroit umbrella, including the nation's first medical clinic for homeless children. He also created a dessert shop and popcorn line to fund programs for Detroit's most underserved citizens. Since 2010, Albom has operated the Have Faith Haiti orphanage in Port au Prince, a home to 60 children, which he visits every month without exception.
Albom also works as a columnist and broadcaster and has founded nine charities in Detroit and operates an orphanage in Port Au Prince, Haiti. He lives with his wife, Janine, in Michigan.

Chacun d'entre nous a connu dans sa jeunesse quelqu'un qui a su comprendre ses aspirations et ses inquiétudes, lui a appris à voir les choses comme elles sont, l'a aidé à trouver sa voie, à devenir un adulte. Pour Mitch Albom, cet homme fut Morrie Schwartz, son professeur d'université.
Un jour, après l'avoir perdu de vue pendant plus de vingt ans, Mitch apprend que Morrie est atteint d'une maladie mortelle, une sclérose amyotrophique latérale, et qu'il a décidé de transformer sa mort en une dernière leçon de philosophie. Mitch lui rendra visite chaque mardi pendant de longs mois, pour chercher avec lui la réponse à cette question qui nous hante tous : comment vivre ?
Et la réponse sera simple, lumineuse, profondément humaine, aux antipodes de tous les discours convenus.
