A dedicated Marxist in her youth, she later experienced a change of heart and converted to Roman Catholicism in 1927. Five years later she cofounded the Catholic Worker Movement. For more than four decades she guided this Catholic social activism movement in the areas of peace advocacy, labor union justice, and civil rights.
