A retired Evangelical pastor, Tim LaHaye is one of the Religious Right's most influential political activists. In addition, he is a hugely successful novelist - in spite of the fact that he didn't even consider writing a novel until his 60s and barely writes a word of the immensely popular series on which he shares author credit. The Left Behind series which he "writes" along with fellow born-again Christian Jerry Jenkins lays out LaHaye's view of the end of the world and the Second Coming. Working from LaHaye's notes, Jenkins pens the hugely popular series which boasts sales of more than 60 million copies. LaHaye has also written over 50 non-fiction titles on such subjects as family life, Bible prophecy, the will of God, Jesus Christ, secular humanism, and sexual adjustment.
