Biography
Early life
Daniel Gorman was born in Wyoming, Iowa, to John and Mary (née Rooney) Gorman. His father was born in County Sligo, Ireland, and his mother in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. After graduating from Wyoming High School, he entered St. Joseph's College in Dubuque.[1] He continued his studies at St. Francis Seminary in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.[1]
Priesthood
Gorman was ordained to the priesthood on June 24, 1893.[2] He served as pastor of a small parish in State Center, Iowa, for one year before joining the faculty of St. Joseph's College. From 1904 to 1918, he was president of St. Joseph's.[1] During his tenure, the college saw its greatest expansion of grounds and building, the high school department was extended, and the four-year course was initiated in 1915. Gorman was elevated to protonotary apostolic on April 19, 1917.[3]
Bishop of Boise
On February 6, 1918, Gorman was appointed the second bishop of the Diocese of Boise by Pope Benedict XV.[2] He received his episcopal consecration on May 1, 1918, from Archbishop Giovanni Bonzano, with Bishops Mathias Lenihan and Joseph Glass, C.M., serving as co-consecrators.[2] During his nine years as bishop, he added 32 diocesan priests, completed St. John's Cathedral to its present size in 1921, and doubled the enrollment in parish schools.[4]
Daniel Gorman died in Lewiston, Idaho, on June 9, 1927, at age 66.
