The Washington Post‘s Michelle Boorstein profiles Cardinal Timothy Dolan, “the most visible and influential U.S. Catholic bishop in decades.” Dolan has agreed to give a benediction at the Democratic National Convention, just as he did for the Republican National Convention. He is known to be affable, outgoing, and extroverted, giving interviews to a myriad of outlets. “Whatever people think of Dolan’s style,” Boorstein writes, “the image of a player-bishop is hard to resist.”
