There's a journalist, intellectual, politician and a cardinal whose sanctity is being studied: Ángel Herrera Oria.
Wiki has this story on the Servant of God, Ángel Cardinal Herrera Oria but there is a biography and it's in Spanish.
Rome Reports has a video story on the journalist-cardinal here.
The Servant of God was born on December 19, 1886, ordained a priest on July 28, 1940 (at 53) and ordained a bishop of Malaga, Spain, on June 30, 1947 (at 60 years). It was the Servant of God Pope Paul VI who created Herrera Oria a cardinal on February 22, 1965.
His Eminence died on July 28, 1968, the 28th anniversary of his priestly ordination.
Cardinal Ángel Herrera Oria, pray for us.
