  • who's the one guy you want to meet in heaven? HIM! : 

  • Thanks for posting this. This is a priceless keepsake. I wish I had known him.

  • Tis a year after I was born, I love it. i want to read his 2nd following book to Angela's ashes.

  • Thank you so much for sharing this. l really wish I could have sat down and had a pint or a cup of tea with him.

  • Good video....captures him well. He was my teacher at McKee 64-68

  • R.I.P. Francis "Frank" McCourt

  • I went to this high school and the first book I read was by McCourt. The book was amazing. It was the first time I've ever cried so hard reading a book: very, very well written. I'm saddened that I never met him in person, especially since he pretty much retired before I was even born.

  • cool!!!

  • Yes, read his books but especially 'Teacher Man'...The first book that won him such praise, in my opionion, is only second to Teacher Man. I only wish (as so many do) that I'd had him as a teacher....rest, dear soul...you deserve respite.

  • @alwaysflowers Yeah I just finished reading 'Teacher Man' and for some reason, I loved it more than the rest, as well. Totally agree with you there!

  • @alwaysflowers Angela's Ashes is tough to read. I meen its a good book and easy to follow. It is just so depressing. First few pages a baby dies.

  • That's a great video. Just as I imagined him. A Great American teacher, author, person, Frank McCourt; epic. Do read his books.

  • And Moishe, you really missed out bro. I would have LOVED to have had Frank McCourt at my wedding.

  • Frank McCourt; one of the finest Americans this country has ever known. I listen to his audiobooks in my car. Great stuff.

  • Thank you for sharing that with us.

  • And he was always insecure about his looks. What an intelligent and handsome man he was.

  • @thestonedmessiah indeed he was handsome. and very, very charming.

  • Great to see this. Thanks for sharing it. A man apart was McCourt.

  • I love his book, the only ones I'veever read without getting bored. Will miss you Frank.

  • A great man, RIP Frank

  • frank mccourt a truely great man

  • I'm so glad that my English teacher made me read Teacher Man last year.

  • frank mccourt R.I.P. legend remembered forever
