Diane Drufenbrock

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sister Diane Joyce Drufenbrock (born 7 October 1929 in Evansville, Indiana), also known as Sister Madeleine Sophie, is a Franciscan nun of the School Sisters of St. Francis and Christian socialist. She was the Vice-Presidential candidate for the Socialist Party USA in the United States presidential election, 1980, and has served as that party's National Treasurer. That campaign resulted in the Party's recognition by the Federal Elections Commission as a national political party. A mathematics graduate of Alverno College in 1953[1] and of Marquette University,[2] she has taught mathematics at Alverno College, at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, and elsewhere around Milwaukee, Wisconsin, including at the then-new Kenosha St. Joseph High School when it opened its doors in September 1957.
