On the heels of the 25th anniversary of the book Tuesdays with Morrie, Carrie Fox sat down with Mitch Albom to discuss the power of storytelling to create empathy among people. This event was produced in partnership with interfaith organizations in Maryland to how a faith in action conversation. One of Albom's true gifts: to tell stories so deeply personal, so easy to project ourselves into, that we can't help but see ourselves in them. And once we're able to see ourselves in a story, or a pitch, or a release, we capture a spark of empathy to light the flame of change.

Mitch is a philanthropist, columnist, musician and sports reporter, whose books such as Tuesdays with Morrie and The Five People You Meet In Heaven have sold over 47 million copies, with translations in 45 languages. While he first became famous for his sports writing, Albom has become better known for the themes of hope and kindness that weave through his books, plays, and films. In his talks and presentations, he brings the same inspiring message of community building, giving, and purpose.
