Wikipedia description:
Anna Maria Taigi (née Giannetti; 29 May 1769 – 9 June 1837) was an Italian Catholic professed member from the Secular Trinitarians. Taigi reportedly experienced a series of ecstasies during her life and heard the voices of God and Jesus Christ on several occasions. She became a Secular Trinitarian after experiencing a sudden religious conversion in the winter of 1790 at Saint Peter's Basilica, when Taigi came into contact with a range of cardinals and luminaries, including Vincent Strambi and Benedict Joseph Flaget. Her beatification process was opened in 1863 under Pope Pius IX, granting her the title Servant of God, and Pope Benedict XV beatified her in 1920.
