Mitch Albom
The seeds of his 1997 phenomenon Tuesdays With Morrie lay in Albom reconnecting with his sometime sociology professor Morrie Schwartz,and the result was a slim volume of conversations that struck a deep chord with the American public. Albom's continued his success with 2003's The Five People You Meet in Heaven,and has explored similar themes of fate and redemption over the books that followed.
