Cody, John (Patrick)

    0.01 sec.

Cody, John (Patrick) (1920-1982)

US Catholic cardinal. Assistant bishop of New Orleans in 1961, he implemented the school integration plan, succeeding to the see in 1964 after Archbishop Joseph Rummel's death. Named archbishop of Chicago in 1965 and a cardinal in 1967, he alienated clergy by his allegedly authoritarian policies.

He was born in St Louis, Missouri. Ordained a priest in 1931, he served in the Vatican Secretariat of State, then held administrative posts in the USA. An investigation into charges that he had diverted church funds to benefit a female friend was suspended after his death.
