Gerald Thomas Walsh (born April 25, 1942) is an American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church, who currently serves as an auxiliary bishop and vicar general of Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York. He was formerly rector of St. Joseph's Seminary from 2007–2013.
Gerald Walsh was born in North Manhattan, as the eldest of the three children of Thomas, a police officer, and Anne (née Haggerty) Walsh, a homemaker who later worked in real estate; his grandparents were born in Ireland. His other sibling are named Michael (b. 1944) and Monica (b. 1950), who is a member of the Religious of the Sacred Heart of Mary and registered nurse serving as coordinator of health care for priests at St. Joseph's Seminary in Dunwoodie. Gerald attended Good Shepherd School and Power Memorial Academy before entering Iona College in New Rochelle in 1959; there he earned the nickname of "St. Gerry" from his classmates. He then studied at St. Joseph's Seminary, where he obtained his bachelor's degree and his Master's in Divinity in moral theology. He was ordained to the priesthood by Francis Joseph Cardinal Spellman on May 27, 1967, in St. Patrick's Cathedral.
