Peter Anthony Rosazza (born February 13, 1935) is a retired American prelate of the Roman Catholic Church who served as an auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Hartford.
The eldest child of Aldo and Agatha (née Dinneen) Rosazza, Peter Rosazza was born in New Haven, Connecticut, and raised in Torrington. He attended St. Francis Elementary School and graduated from Torrington High School in 1952. He studied at Dartmouth College for a year before entering St. Thomas Seminary in Bloomfield. He then studied at St. Bernard Seminary in Rochester, New York, and at Saint-Sulpice Seminary in Paris, France, where he was ordained to the priesthood on June 29, 1961.
Upon his return to the Archdiocese of Hartford, Rosazza served as assistant pastor at the Church of St. Timothy in West Hartford and later joined the faculty of St. Thomas Seminary, where he taught French, Spanish, and Italian. In 1972, he became co-pastor of Sacred Heart Church, the mother church of Hartford's Hispanic Catholic community.
