I may have missed it, but where in this article did it say she found Christ?

That's not really what the article was about, but since Catholics worship Christ as their God and she became one, it goes without saying that she must have found him then.

The woman clearly wears her Christianity on her sleeve (and I mean that as no criticism): http://www.dawneden.com/blogger.html

It's near the end. Her Mom became a Christian first. Dawn was introduced to the writings of G. K. Chesterton in 1996, and became a Christian in 1999. She became a Catholic a year or two ago.

On the second page of the Times article she describes a conversion process in which she begins reading about Christianity and then embraces Catholicism.

"That was the first time it struck me that there was something exciting about Christianity. I kept reading Chesterton even as I continued my dissipated lifestyle, and then one night in October 1999 I had a hypnagogic experience — the sort in which you’re not sure if you are asleep or awake. I heard a woman’s voice saying: “Some things are not meant to be known. Some things are meant to be understood.” I got on my knees and prayed — and eventually entered the Catholic church."

Though a lapsed Jew, she is now a practicing Catholic. With an epiphany, even.
