David Allen Zubik (/ˈzuːbɪk/ ZOO-bik; born September 4, 1949) is an American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church who serves as the twelfth and current bishop of the Diocese of Pittsburgh. Bishop Zubik previously served as the bishop of the Diocese of Green Bay from 2003 to 2007.
David Zubik was born in Sewickley, Pennsylvania to Stanley (b. 1927) and Susan Zubik (née Raskosky; died 2006). The grandson of Polish and Slovak immigrants, he is an only child.
He was raised in Ambridge, Pennsylvania and attended St. Stanislaus Church. His parents would take him to a local amusement park after Mass on Sundays.
Zubik first considered pursuing Holy Orders in the first grade, later contemplating a career in law before returning to his priestly aspirations after attending a retreat in 1965 on the South Side. After graduating from St. Veronica High School in 1967, he entered St. Paul Seminary in Pittsburgh. He earned an undergraduate degree from Duquesne University in 1971 and continued his studies at St. Mary's Seminary and University in Baltimore, Maryland, earning a Master of Divinity degree in 1975.
