For 30 years, Morrie Schwartz's wisdom has resonated with people around the world largely due to the beloved, best-selling memoir, Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom. Now we have the opportunity to speak with Morrie's son, Rob Schwartz, about the book The Wisdom of Morrie. Written by Morrie himself and edited by Rob, The Wisdom of Morrie: Living and Aging Creatively and Joyfully is a profound and beautiful book by Morrie from a previously unpublished manuscript. Its theme is how to experience aging as a positive, creative, and connected experience.

Rob has got some great stories about his dad and the profound impact Morrie had on his family and the world. Register directly on Zoom HERE. RECORDING NOTE: This program will be recorded. All registrants will receive the recording via email within 48 hours of the program. About Rob Rob Schwartz is an entrepreneur, writer, and editor as well as music and film producer.
