Lewis Jerome Zeigler (4 January 1944 – 12 August 2022) was a Liberian Roman Catholic prelate who served as the Archbishop of Monrovia since 2011 until 2021. Zeigler was born in Harrisburg in 1944 and was ordained in 1974 before he was appointed in 2002 as the Bishop of Gbarnga. He was later named as the Coadjutor Archbishop of Monrovia in 2009 and ascended to head the diocese in 2011 after his predecessor died in office. Zeigler was a conservative prelate who opposed same-sex marriage and abortion in Liberia.[1][2][3]
