Frank McCourt


Famed memoirist Frank McCourt died on Sunday. McCourt is best known for the Pulitzer Prize-winning Angela's Ashes, an unflinching story of his grim Irish childhood. Two other books, 'Tis and Teacher Man, chronicled McCourt's adult life in New York. You can listen to a remembrance of McCourt, as well as audio clips of the author discussing his life and work, at NPR.
