Ellen M. Barrett papers Barrett (Ellen M.) papers 1946-2005

Ellen M. Barrett, a scholar specializing in medieval monastic history, was the first openly gay person, and one of the earliest women, to be ordained priest in the Episcopal Church. Beginning in 1975, when she was ordained deacon, through 1977 when she was ordained priest, the collection documents her path to ordination and the far reaching international reaction to her ordination. The collection covers her subsequent, nearly thirty-year carreer as priest in the Episcopal Church and her eventual postulancy in an Anglican women's monastic community.
