Carlos Humberto Rodríguez Quirós (April 21, 1910 – July 23, 1986) was a Costa Rican priest of the Catholic Church. Originally a Carthusian monk in Europe, he left that order and returned to Costa Rica, where he was named Archbishop of San José in 1960.[1] He was relieved by the Vatican of the administration of the archdiocese in 1978, and he resigned in 1979.
