Denis James Madden (born March 8, 1940) is an American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church, who served as an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, Maryland.
Denis Madden was born to William and Anna (née Burnakis) Madden in Carbondale, Pennsylvania; his father was of Irish descent and his mother of Lithuanian. He later entered the Order of St. Benedict, more commonly known as the Benedictines, and studied at St. Benedict's College in Atchison, Kansas.
Madden was ordained to the priesthood on April 1, 1967. After about nine years as a Benedictine monk, Madden was allowed to leave the order and become a diocesan priest of the Archdiocese of Baltimore.
He attended Columbia University, where he obtained a Master's degree in psychology, and the University of Notre Dame, earning a PhD in clinical psychology. In 1973, Madden assumed a post in the psychology program at the University of Maryland, concurrently working as a marriage and family counselor for Associated Catholic Charities. He taught as a professor at the University of Maryland's School of Medicine, and provided counseling to the clergy and religious of the Archdiocese as well. After co-founding the humanitarian organization Accord Foundation, he was director of the Pontifical Mission for Palestine office in Jerusalem from 1994 to 1996, whence he became Associate Secretary General of the Catholic Near East Welfare Association.
