Patricia Cornwell

Alan Yentob meets crime writer Patricia Cornwell, whose novels include depictions of graphic violence, inspired by her fascination with real-life crime. Her first novel, Postmortem, was so shocking, audiences didn’t know what to make of it. This clip features a photographic portrait of Patricia, shot by renowned photographer Annie Liebovitz, which portrays Patricia in medical scrubs, covered in blood, in a take on a rather bloody mortuary scene.
