Maria Teresa Nuzzo was a Roman Catholic nun, founder of the religious institute Daughters of the Sacred Heart.
Maria Teresa was born into a strongly Christian family, the second child born to Paul and Louisa Morrocchi Nuzzo. Her elder brother died in a cholera outbreak, leaving Maria Teresa the eldest. A day after Maria Teresa was born, she was baptised in the Collegiate Parish of St. Paul, and she received confirmation at the age of eight.
