About the author -- Excerpt from the Wikipedia:
Fulton John Sheen (1895 - 1979) was an American bishop (later archbishop) of the Roman Catholic Church known for his preaching and especially his work on television and radio. His cause for canonization as a saint was officially opened in 2002. In June 2012, Pope Benedict XVI officially recognized a decree from the Congregation for the Causes of Saints stating that he lived a life of "heroic virtues" -- a major step towards beatification -- so he is now referred to as "Venerable".
