Pedro Arrupe
Fr. Pedro Arrupe, S.J. (14 November 1907 – 5 February 1991) was a Spanish Basque Jesuit priest who served as the 28th Superior General of the Society of Jesus from 1965 to 1983. He has been called a second founder of the Society as he led the Jesuits in the implementation of the Second Vatican Council, especially with regard to faith that does justice and preferential option for the poor.

Stationed as novice master outside Hiroshima in 1945, Arrupe used his medical background as a first responder to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.

In 1983, a paralysis from a stroke caused him to resign from office. He lived on until 1991 in the infirmary.
