Synopsis Michael Lewis, author of LIARS' POKER and MONEYBALL, now ventures into his own life, specifically his high-school days in New Orleans a quarter-century ago, when as a young baseball player he encountered Billy Fitzgerald, fondly known as "Coach Fitz." This brief profile of the coach--a tough taskmaster who inspired Lewis to rise to heights he didn't know he was capable of--stresses Fitzgerald's insistence on self-reliance and perseverance as he taught Lewis and his teammates the importance of rising to meet a challenge--tough but valuable lessons that Lewis feels are often undervalued today.
