Father Richard John Neuhaus is a North American Catholic writer. He is the founder and editor of “First Things”, an ecumenical journal that is notable for its commitment to Catholic orthodoxy and its ties to conservative political ideas. He is also the author of several books, including “The Naked Public Square: Religion and Democracy in America”, “The Catholic Moment: The Paradox of the Church in the Postmodern World”, “As I Lay Dying: Meditations Upon Returning”, and “Catholic Matters: Confusion, Controversy, and the Splendor of Truth”.

Ordained a Lutheran minister, Neuhaus was pastor of a poor congregation in a minority area of New York City. He was active in the Civil Rights Movement and was a close acquaintance of Martin Luther King, Jr. He was active in liberal politics until Roe v. Wade. He was a close friend of Pope John Paul II and has long been an acquaintance of Pope Benedict XVI.
