Dagmar Braun Celeste (born in 1942, Krems, Austria), the former first lady of Ohio, was married to former Ohio governor and U.S. ambassador Richard F. Celeste.
In 2002, she announced that she had secretly been ordained a priest of the Roman Catholic Church under the pseudonym Angela White. She was one of seven women ordained by Argentinian Bishop Romolo Braschi and Austrian Bishop Rafael Regelsberger on a boat in the Danube River. Celeste was subsequently excommunicated by the church.
Dagmar and Dick Celeste, who have six grown children, were divorced in 1995.
