Sister Joan D. Chittister, {{Post-nominals|post-noms=O.S.B.}} (born April 26, 1936)[1] is an American Benedictine nun, theologian, author,[2] and speaker. She has served as prioress and Benedictine federation president, president of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, and co-chair of the Global Peace Initiative of Women.

Biography

Chittister was born April 26, 1936 to Daniel and Loretta Daugherty. Her father died when she was very young and her mother married Harold Chittister, whom Joan Chittister describes as an abusive alcoholic, although she remained sufficiently attached to him that as an adult she chose to retain his surname.[3]

She was taught by the Sisters of St. Joseph, and later attended Benedictine Academy in Erie, Pennsylvania. Shortly after joining the Benedictine community, Chittister contracted polio.[3] Chittister holds a master's degree from the University of Notre Dame and a Ph.D. in speech communication theory from Penn State University.[4] She was also a research associate of St. Edmund's College, Cambridge University.

In 1971, she was elected president of the Federation of St. Scholastica, a federation of twenty Monasteries of Benedictine Women in the United States and Mexico, established in 1922.[5] She was a prioress of the Benedictine Sisters of Erie, Pennsylvania, for 12 years. A past president of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, she is co-chair of the Global Peace Initiative of Women, an international network of women and men spiritual and community leaders.

In 2001, the Vatican’s Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life directed the Benedictines to forbid her to speak on discipleship at the Women's Ordination Worldwide conference in Dublin. Supported by her religious community, Chittister spoke anyway. Chittister says that women’s ordination has never been her primary focus.[6] Chittister's books deal with monasticism, feminism and women's role in society, interfaith work, humility, and other topics.

She writes a column for the National Catholic Reporter, "From Where I Stand".[7]

Penn State University holds the Joan D. Chittister Literary Archives.[8]

A biography of Sister Joan was released by Orbis Books in October 2015, Joan Chittister: Her Journey from Certainty to Faith by Tom Roberts.[9]
