Life

Manuel Tato was ordained a priest on December 21, 1929 .

Pope Pius XII appointed him on November 13, 1948 auxiliary bishop in Buenos Aires and titular bishop of Aulon . The Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Cardinal Santiago Luis Copello , ordained him episcopal on March 27 of the following year. Co- consecrators were the Archbishop of Santa Fe de la Vera Cruz , Nicolás Fasolino , and Auxiliary Bishop Antonio Rocca .

He was appointed Bishop of Santiago del Estero on July 11, 1961, and was appointed to his office on December 8 of that year.

Bishop Tato attended all four sessions of the Second Vatican Council as the Council Father. It so happened that he was seated next to Bishop Carl Joseph Leiprecht von Rottenburg in the council hall . This led to the fact that priests of the Diocese of Rottenburg and the Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart were sent to the Diocese of Santiago del Estero as Fidei Donum priests .

Manuel Tato was a cousin of the medical doctor Juan Manuel Tato .
