Grace Murdock was married to boxer "Battling" Jack Murdock. Their son was Matt Murdock, who grew up to become the super-hero Daredevil. Grace Murdock was a devout Catholic. After Grace Murdock divorced her husband Jack, she became a Catholic nun. The reasons for this are not entirely clear. Perhaps she decided she could have no more of her husband's hard-living ways. She has continued to have an interest in her son's career and on occasion has assisted him when he has been in dire circumstances.
