Anne Rice's New Orleans - The Vampire Queen's Life and Legacy

In this video, we share places in New Orleans that were important to Anne Rice's life and work, including her most famous novel, Interview with the Vampire. From an innocuous, working-class Catholic childhood in New Orleans's Garden District and Irish Channel, Anne went on to become a household name, with dozens of novels to her name, plus a trail of restored mansions, more than one upcoming TV series, and one of the most devoted (and strikingly dressed) fandoms in the world. Here we'll share houses she owned and renovated, how her struggle with addiction informed her work, her feud with the founder of Popeyes Fried Chicken, her legacy in New Orleans today, and her final resting place. Special thanks this time to the incredibly friendly folks at the Garden District Book Shop and Chicory House Coffee!
