Frank McCourt might be best known for penning the autobiographical book Angela's Ashes (which is how I came to hear of him). He was also a teacher, humanitarian, and a winner of many awards including the Pulitzer Prize.
He sadly died yesterday at 79 years of age. He will be greatly missed!

It really is too bad that such a wonderful author and man has died. Where is the hype about him? It is all about Jacko.
I hear ya! Frank McCourt certainly contributed more than Michael Jackson (although he did have a few good songs in the early 80's).
I re-read Angela's Ashes not too long ago. That guy had quite the adventures and hardships!
