"Katharine Drexel: The Saintly Socialite"

As Matt says, the saints live in one of two ways, they either start out bad and turn good or they start out good and get even better. In season three we are introduced to Katharine Drexel, The Saintly Socialite, and are encouraged to remove the rose-colored glasses of her commonly known story.

Not everything is what it seems, and Katharine is no stranger to death and lies from the very beginning of her life.

How does a young, wealthy, socialite become the saint we know and love?
