She helped to establish and served as managing editor of Triumph, a Catholic opinion journal that was published for nearly a decade. A native of New York City and a graduate of Vassar College, she was a freelance editor at Regnery Publishing, National Review, The American Spectator, and Communio: International Catholic Review.

A daughter of William Frank Buckley Sr., and Aloise Steiner Buckley, Patricia Buckley was the wife of L.
