JAMES EDWARD MAULE
After graduating in 1965, I attended Devon Prep, the University of Pennsylvania Wharton School, Villanova University School of Law and George Washington University National Law Center. When I went to law school at Villanova, I was pleasantly surprised to find Fritz Haase and Dolores Troiani also there. During college, I worked at an accounting firm, did taxes at H&R Block and served as business manager and air personality at WXPN. After spending time with a Philadelphia law firm, I moved to Washington, DC, where I served as attorney –advisor to the Chief Counsel of the IRS and also to a United States Tax Court judge. I then went on to teaching law, five semesters at Dickinson and the past 32 yrs. at Villanova. I focus primarily on tax, wills and trusts, and law and technology. Over the years, I have written more than two dozen tax books, several other law books and numerous tax-related computer programs. I’ve been married twice, have two children, Sarah Margaret and Charles Edward, daughter-in-law Karen, and grandson Henry Thomas Maule. Among my hobbies is genealogy; I have written several family history books. In recent years I have done a good bit of traveling, often meeting distant relatives and visiting places of historical interest to the family (which is how I became an honorary citizen of the town of Maule in France). I am an ordained Presbyterian elder, and have been active in the church as trustee, ruling elder, choir president, sacristan and member of various committees. My mother (who was lunch-room monitor for some of us) is still with us, lives in the same house and says hello. She remembers many of your names and has asked about you.
