41. An Irish-American Evening: Frank McCourt And Alice McDermott -Folger Shakespeare frank mccourt was born in 1930 in Brooklyn, New York, to Irish immigrant parents, grew up in Limerick, Ireland, and returned to America in 1949. http://www.folger.edu/woSummary.cfm?woid=388

42. Frank McCourt A sample of some of frank mccourt s writing taken from Irish America magazine. http://www.irishtours.com/bigship.html

A Big Ship Sailing by Frank McCourt Reprinted with permission Irish America magazine, May-June, 1993 On the deck of the ss. CostaRiviera, a dozen strayed revelers from Irish Festival Cruises raise their glasses to the dawn. Paddy Clancy , guru of that renowned group The Clancy Brothers and Robbie O'Connell, is so overcome with the beauty of it all he strips down to his shorts and dives into the jacuzzi. You say, How can anyone dive into a jacuzzi? Your point, dear reader, is well taken. I don't know how Paddy did it and he doesn't know. You could say God watches over children, and people in a certain exuberant condition. You could say also, This is Irish Festival Cruises and aren't we here to enjoy ourselves and who better to show us than the Clancys - Paddy, Bobby, Liam and their nephew, Robbie? And with the jacuzzi jets soothing his Tipperary tissues, Paddy sings to a sun turning the Caribbean sky a heartbreaking blaze of scarlet, pink, gold. It's worth staying up for, this dawn, and easier than getting up. Paddy Clancy is the stay up type. Mary Clancy has more sense. She retires at a decent hour so that she'll be fresh for the yoga class she teaches at ten. It tones the body, clears the head, helps you cope with a spouse who can't pass a jacuzzi without diving in head first."Yoga?" you say. Of course. An Indian discipline taught by an Irish woman on an Italian ship in the middle of the Caribbean. What could be more exotic? Yoga - and more. In a nearby lounge you'll find a "meeting" in progress, a place of solace for those who have given up the drink, a refuge for anyone grappling with the problem.

Baccalaureate and Honors Convocation ceremony held on Friday, May 11, 2007. Several hundred men and women took a giant step into their futures at the Manhattanville College Bachelor of Science and Master’s Commencement on May 10, 2007. At the commencement ceremony, Master of Arts, Master of Science, Master of Arts in Teaching, and Master of Professional Studies degrees were conferred on 365 students, ranging in age from 22 to 64 years old and coming from seven U. S. states and six countries. Bachelor of Science degrees were awarded to 15 students who returned to college to complete their degrees. Manhattanville College President Richard A. Berman congratulated the graduates, noting their strength and passion for their professions. “Manhattanville has reinforced your sense of purpose and your appreciation for the strength and breadth of community. You have felt the power and potential that comes from community, and you have accepted your special responsibility to use all of this to make the world a better place,” Berman stated. During his remarks, Berman highlighted the individual accomplishments of many of the graduates such as a student who, while raising four children, earned an MAT and helped found a school in Connecticut. Other students, President Berman pointed out, had worked abroad in Asia and Latin America as part of their education.

46. Creative Writing With Frank McCourt His name was frank mccourt, and yes, that’s the same frank mccourt who’s the author of the best selling book Angela s Ashes. I didn’t take Creative Writing http://www.calicocat.com/frank_mccourt.htm

The Calico Cat A weblog about business, economics, law, politics, and current events - nothing about cats click here to return to the Calico Cat homepage Creative Writing With Frank McCourt In the course of maintaining this blog, people have occasionally given me positive comments on the quality of my writing. Maybe they are just saying this to be nice, or maybe they are sincere. Probably the former explanation is correct, but if there is any truth to the latter, then one may ask how I came to be such a good writer. The answer is that I had a really great Creative Writing teacher when I was at Stuyvesant High School. His name was Frank McCourt, and yes, that’s the same Frank McCourt who’s the author of the best selling book Angela's Ashes . I didn’t take Creative Writing because it’s what I was interested in—not that I actually knew what I was interested in back when I was in high school—I took the class because Frank McCourt was so highly recommended by other students. It should be noted here that one of the reasons he was so recommended was because he would allegedly let kids cut his class whenever they wanted to. The “cool kids” (the ones who lived on the Upper East Side) could often be seen hanging out in Stuyvesant Square Park smoking pot when they should have been in McCourt’s class.

The self-described "late bloomer" retired in 1987 and wrote the memoir that would amplify his existence: Angela's Ashes . When it arrived in 1996, McCourt, a ripe 66, became an international celebrity, a Pulitzer Prize winner, a consultant on the Hollywood film, and a sought-after speaker. ' Tis: A Memoir , the second installment of McCourt's life story, became another best seller in 1999. Now comes Teacher Man , which details McCourt's three decades instructing thousands of challenging adolescents. Victoria Lautman talked with McCourt, who spoke by phone from his home in Manhattan.
