An American classic, Ben-Hur is both a vivid historical epic and the powerful story of one man's
spiritual journey from slavery to vengeance to redemption. Born the son of a Jewish nobleman, Ben-Hur
is condemned to the galleys for life for accidentally dislodging a piece of tile which falls on the Roman
procurator. He is betrayed by his best friend, manages to escape his imprisonment, and gains revenge
and glory before the cheering multitudes in the chariot races at the Roman Circus in Antioch. Later, he
fulfills his true destiny at the foot of a cross on a hill in Jerusalem.

Lloyd James hails from the Midwest. He received a B.A. in theater from a small liberal-arts college in New Mexico. He acts in the theater when his schedule permits and spends much of his free time working in his garden. He lives in Virginia with his wife and son.
