15 years after his hit book "The Five People You Meet In Heaven", which critics called "trancendent", author Mitch Albom is back with the sequel, "The Next Person You Meet In Heaven".

We spoke with Mitch Albom about what inspired him to write the first book and why he waited so long to write a sequel.
