Millions of people know sportswriter Mitch Albom from his nationally syndicated Detroit Free Press column. In 1997, his inspirational memoir became an international bestseller. In 2002, with popular playwright Jeffrey Hatcher, Albom adapted the book for the stage. "Tuesdays with Morrie" is the autobiographical story of Mitch Albom, an accomplished journalist driven solely by his career, and Morrie Schwartz, his former college professor. Sixteen years after graduation, Mitch happens to catch Morrie's appearance on a television news program and learns that his old professor is battling Lou Gehrig's Disease. Mitch is reunited with Morrie, and what starts as a simple visit turns into a weekly pilgrimage and a last class in the meaning of life.
