  • Fidelma Anne O'Leary is a tall, blond Muslim who was raised Catholic in her native Ireland.
  • She began questioning her faith as a teenager, found answers in a 50-cent copy of the Quran given to her by a friend, and converted to Islam in college.
  • Now she is an associate professor of Biology at St. Edward's University, O'Leary agreed to let National Geographic document her hajj experience, which is at once a private spiritual journey and an immersion in one of the largest religious gatherings in the world.
  • O'Leary said "Hatred comes from ignorance," "The Quran says there's more than one path to God. We're told to respect and honor other faiths."
  • O'Leary, who became an American citizen in 1986, has worked to promote good will in her community since 9-11. She is the spokeswoman for Austin's Council on American Islamic Relations.
  • O'Leary went for hajj (pilgrimage). She said "Hajj was good for me because it helped me learn patience,"
