Dr. Annie Huey, Ph.D.<\/strong>, explores the life and writings of Katherine Burton (1887-1969), a once-prominent, yet still important Catholic laywoman in the mid-twentieth century. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to writing over forty-five biographies and histories of Catholic figures and Catholic religious orders, Burton’s monthly column in\u00a0Sign Magazine<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>entitled \u201cWoman to Woman,\u201d ran for an impressive thirty-six years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Huey and Passionist Historian Fr. Rob Carbonneau, CP<\/strong>, examine the breadth of Burton’s work, her writing process, her relationship with Sign\u2019s <\/em>editors, and the advice she imparted to her large female readership on navigating the evolving roles and responsibilities of Catholic laywomen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The longevity of her career reminds us that Katherine Burton remains an invaluable, untapped source for understanding the lives of U.S. Catholic women during this transformative era. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
