Mitch traveled around 700 miles from Detroit to Massachusetts to visit Morrie Schwartz every Tuesday.
Morrie Schwartz and Mitch Albom knew each other from Mitch's college days at Brandeis University, where Morrie was Mitch's sociology professor. Their relationship evolved into a deep friendship, particularly after Mitch learned of Morrie's battle with ALS. Mitch sought to reconnect with Morrie during his illness, leading to the memorable interviews that formed the basis of Mitch's bestselling book, "Tuesdays with Morrie." Through these meetings, they explored profound life lessons and shared meaningful conversations.
Tuesdays with Morrie was written by author Mitch Albom
