Brigid Anne Ryan
Brigid Anne Ryan was an Irish journalist. In 1992 she became the first female editor of a national newspaper in Ireland when she was appointed editor of The Irish Catholic.[1]
Ryan resigned from The Irish Catholic in 1995 after criticism from the bishop of Cashel and Ossory and the archbishop of Dublin about an editorial she wrote on Pope John Paul II and his stance on capital punishment.[2] She was succeeded in this role by David Quinn.[3]
Following her resignation, she became involved with the Pilgrim House religious group.[1][4]
