Anne Rice's Jesus  
Aired: Thursday, March 13, 2008 11-12PM ET

Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana (cover detail)
By host Tom Ashbrook

Novelist Anne Rice made her name, fame and fortune on dark tales of vampires and illicit love. Her Vampire Chronicles, starting with "Interview with the Vampire" and her dark, blood-drawn hero Lestat, blossomed into a cultural phenomenon -- and sold millions of books.

In 2002, after a religious conversion, Anne Rice vowed to devote her work as a writer to God. She's out now with her second big book putting the Anne Rice imagination -- and devotion -- to work on the life of Jesus. This time, Jesus at 30, coming to terms with divinity.

This hour, On Point: Anne Rice on her faith and path from vampire love to the Gospels.
