Anna, Woman of Miracles is the story of Saint Anne, the mother of Mary and the grandmother of Jesus. Though hundreds of thousands of worshippers celebrate her feast day, most know nothing of her remarkable life story, a story that includes her affiliation with the Essenes, the ancient Jewish sect that produced the Dead Sea Scrolls; her reputation as a healer; her three husbands; her lifelong and controversial interaction with a Roman legate; her role in preparing Mary to be the mother of the Messiah; and her influence on the life of her grandson.
