Mitch Albom talks to Oprah about 20 years of life after ‘Morrie’

Twenty years after the memoir about his life was published, Morrie Schwartz is still teaching lessons about life, love, forgiveness and generosity.  That, says author and Free Press columnist Mitch Albom, is more than he ever hoped for “Tuesdays with Morrie,” the book he wrote about lessons learned from weekly visits with Schwartz, his favorite college professor and mentor, in the months leading up to his death in 1995 of ALS, a progressive neurodegenerative disease.On Sunday, when he appears on Oprah Winfrey’s show, “SuperSoul Sunday,” on OWN, Albom will talk about how those lessons still resonate.”I’m happy that Morrie still gets to teach,” Albom said. “For someone who’s not even here to have that kind of influence 20 years later, I think every teacher dreams about having that kind of effect. And (Oprah) helped bring that to the world.”
