Richard Cushing
Richard James Cushing is an American bishop of the Roman Catholic Church. He was Archbishop of Boston from 1944 to 1970 and was appointed a cardinal in 1958. Cushing's primary role was to raise funds and build new churches, schools and educational institutions. Unlike his predecessor, he had good relations with virtually all of Boston's elites, softening the traditional confrontation between Irish Catholics and the Protestant elite. He established beneficial relationships with Jews, Protestants, and organizations outside the mainstream Catholic community. He helped presidential candidate John F. Kennedy ease concerns about papal interference in the US government if a Catholic becomes president. Cushing's high energy level allows him to meet many people throughout the day, often giving long speeches at night. He is inefficient in his businesses and as costs rise he relies on his fundraising skills instead of cutting costs.
