The reaction rate for the radiative proton capture on the drip line nucleus ^12N was determined using the indirect Asymptotic Normalization Coefficient (ANC) method. This reaction is important for studying the nucleosynthesis in Population III stars with low-metallicity. A 23 MeV/nucleon ^12C primary beam from the K500 cyclotron at Texas A&M University was employed. Secondary ^12N beam of 2 x 10^5 pps was separated using the recoil spectrometer MARS. The ^14N(^12N,^13O)^13C proton transfer reaction at 12 MeV/nucleon was measured to extract the ANC for the virtual decay ^13O->^12N + p. The ANC was then used to determine the direct component of the astrophysical S-factor. The results of this measurement will be discussed.
