Anita M. Caspary, IHM (November 4, 1915 in Herrick, South Dakota – October 5, 2011 in Los Angeles, California) was the only woman in American history to hold the positions of Mother General of an order of Catholic sisters and the first president of a Christian ecumenical community. Under her leadership over 300 sisters relinquished their canonical status and formed the new Immaculate Heart Community of California. Anita Caspary, and her IHM sisters, organized the new Immaculate Heart Community as an independent religious entity. They are a religious community without any official church affiliation. The majority remained lay Catholics. In addition to her renowned leadership role with the Immaculate Heart Community, Caspary was president of Immaculate Heart College (1958-63), English professor, popular teacher and lecturer, published author and poet. Acknowledged as a transformative leader in the post Vatican II Catholic Church, she was featured on the cover of Time magazine, February 23, 1970.
