Mitch Albom

(1958- )
Mitchell David Albom (born May 23, 1958 in Trenton, New Jersey, USA) is an award-winning sportswriter novelist, newspaper columnist for the Detroit Free Press, syndicated radio host, and TV commentator.

Albom wrote the best-selling novel, Tuesdays With Morrie (1997). After being featured prominently in Oprah Winfrey's Oprah's Book Club, the novel sold exceptionally well, and Oprah Winfrey produced a television movie adaptation for ABC starring Hank Azaria and Jack Lemmon. The television movie adaptation of Tuesdays with Morrie was the most watched television movie of 1999 and won four Emmy Awards. His most recent novel is the New York Times best-seller, The Five People You Meet in Heaven (2003). It has sold very well, although critics have not had kind words for its sentimentalism. That book was turned into a television movie for ABC starring Jon Voight, Ellen Burstyn, Michael Imperioli and Jeff Daniels. A parody of the book, called The Five People You Meet in Hell by Jeff Pablum has recently appeared on bookstore shelves.

After his experiences with Morrie Schwartz, he started a volunteer group in 1998 called "A Time to Help". Every month, the group (affiliated with Volunteer Impact) does a project to help serve and improve the Detroit community. Projects have included work at homeless shelters, food banks, senior citizens homes, and orphanages. Mitch and his radio co-host Ken Brown lead each project and try to use the group as a catalyst to increase volunteerism.

Mitch Albom is also part of a rock band, The Rock Bottom Remainders, whose members are all published writers.

He is a graduate of Brandeis University and Columbia University. Before becoming a journalist, Albom was briefly an amateur boxer, nightclub singer, and pianist.
