About the Professor
"The Jesuit School is a window on the world of today--and the Church of tomorrow!"
During her tenure at the Jesuit School, Sr. Mary Ann Donovan has taught many courses – currently, she teaches Church to 1400, and in spring 2011 she will offer God For Us: The Trinity. Many of her courses parallel her own professional interests, which include history of Christianity, and early church thinking and practice in systematic theology and spirituality.
For some years now Sr. Mary Ann has been engaged in Buddhist/Catholic dialogue. Among her list of accomplishments, she has published several books, including One Right Reading? A Guide to Irenaeus (Collegeville: Liturgical Press, 1998), served as President of the Catholic Theological Society of America, and served 12 years on the editorial board of Theological Studies.
