About the Author
Meet Mitch Albom, a storyteller with a heart of gold. He's the creative mind behind many books that touch both our hearts and our souls. Imagine his words traveling across the globe, in over 47 languages, bringing comfort and inspiration to millions – that's over 40 million copies in total!
You might have heard of his captivating book "Tuesdays with Morrie," a true-life tale that became the most cherished memoir ever, reigning at the top of bestseller lists for four incredible years. Mitch's talents go beyond just writing; he's woven his stories into award-winning TV films, plays that light up the stage, and scripts that come alive on the big screen. His thoughts have even graced newspaper columns across the nation, leaving a lasting impact.
But Mitch's contributions aren't limited to the world of words. He's a true champion for those facing health challenges, extending his helping hand through charitable deeds. As a powerhouse at the Detroit Free Press, he earned his place in two prestigious halls of fame – the National Sports Media Association and Michigan Sports. In 2010, he received the well-deserved Red Smith Award for a lifetime filled with remarkable achievements.
After penning the moving memoir "Finding Chika" and sharing the ongoing saga ""Human Touch"" online, he did something remarkable. Mitch used his gift of storytelling to raise funds for pandemic relief, showing how stories can bring positive change to the world. And now, his storytelling magic takes a turn back to fiction with "The Stranger in the Lifeboat," a tale to captivate your imagination, releasing in November 2021.
But there's more to Mitch than his books. He's the mastermind behind SAY Detroit, a united effort of nine different charitable projects in his hometown. From a dessert shop that warms hearts to a food line that feeds hope, these ventures uplift the underserved in Detroit. And his heart knows no bounds – all the way in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti, he nurtures an orphanage, making monthly visits to spread love and care.
Mitch's journey isn't solitary; his beloved wife, Janine, walks alongside him. Together, they call Michigan home, where their tales of compassion and kindness continue to grow.

In the pages Mitch writes and the actions he takes, we find a reminder that stories have the power to heal, to uplift, and to unite us all in a tapestry of humanity.
