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.

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

@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!

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.

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.
