In today's Globe, I have a story looking at Cardinal Sean P. O'Malley's eventful and difficult first five years as the Roman Catholic archbishop of Boston.

Feel free to post comments or questions below.

I had a 30-minute interview with O'Malley on Tuesday; you can read the full transcript, or take a look at video excerpts from the interview:

  1. Michael,
    Very fine piece on Card. O'Malley's first 5 years. Nice insight into the Cardinal 'behind the scenes'. Thanks for your deeper insights into the life of this humble shepherd. Too many folks only see the brief news clips and sound bites, and don't take time to discove the genuine Franciscan beneath. He was given the most challenging assignment of any bishop in modern times. Your thoughtful report was respectful and enjoyable.
