One of my favorite authors, Frank McCourt passed away today at age 78. He lived an incredible life, as recounted in his memoirs, "Angela's Ashes" and "'Tis," persevering through an impoverished childhood in Ireland and returning to New York to make a life for himself. I wish I could have been a student in his creative writing class.
A tip of the hat to you, Mr McCourt, I remain truly inspired.
