Biography

Msgr. Charles Owen Rice was born in New York City in 1908, the son of Irish immigrants. After his mother died when he was four, he and a brother were sent back to Ireland to be raised by an aging grandmother. By age 11, he returned to the states and was ordained into the priesthood in 1934 following studies at Duquesne University and St. Vincent Seminary, both in Pittsburgh. After ordination in 1934, he became involved with labor unions, often acting as an arbitrator. He was a leader in resisting the influence of the Communists in labor unions in the 1930s and 1940s. Partially in response to the Communist effort to control organized labor, Father Rice aided in founding the Association of Catholic Trade Unionists; he also served as its chaplain.

In 1937 Rice founded St. Joseph's House of Hospitality, giving shelter and food to homeless men in the Hill District of Pittsburgh. Labor, Communism, and St. Joseph's House were frequent topics on his weekly radio program which aired from 1937 to 1969. He and two older clergy also organized the Catholic Radical Alliance, which later became an important adjunct of the Catholic Worker movement in America. During World War II, Father Rice was appointed local rent director of the Hill District.

In 1952 Father Rice received a pastorate appointment in Natrona and later Washington, Pa., but continued his interests in labor. He walked picket lines with countless unions, protested steel plant shutdowns in the 1980s, and joined The Pittsburgh Press strikers in 1992. Although long interested in civil rights, his appointment to the predominantly African American parish of Holy Rosary in Pittsburgh's Homewood section kindled greater interest in the cause. He later became a critic of the Vietnam War. In his seven decades as a priest, Rice was pastor of numerous churches, including St. Joseph's in Natrona, Immaculate Conception in Washington, Pa., Holy Rosary in Homewood, and St. Ann's in Castle Shannon, Pa.

Father Rice passed away in 2005.

Series  VI. Holy Rosary School, 1969-1974 

Scope and Content Notes

Series VI contains materials related to Father Rice's time as Pastor of the Holy Rosary School in the Homewood section of Pittsburgh. Rice took over the school in 1966, and by 1968, he had developed a new program that he believed suited the community's children better. The program consisted of non-traditional approaches to Catholic school education where the principal was not catholic, the students did not have to wear uniforms, and there was a general sense of independence for the students. This series contains funding proposals, newsclippings, yearbooks, and letters to Father Rice from school children (1969-1974).
