    James B. O'Donnell, a partner in the well-known firm of Dolle, Taylor,
O'Donnell & Geisler, and a member of the Cincinnati bar, is essentially a
product of Cincinnati and its institutions, for, in his native city, he has
secured his education and his training and here has been achieved the success
which has resulted from his industry and ably-directed efforts. Mr. O'Donnell
was born at Cincinnati, March 21, 1881, and acquired his early educational
advantages through attendance at All Saints parochial school. Later he went to
St. Xavier College, and after he had completed the course there enrolled as a
student at the University of Cincinnati. As a member of the graduating class of
1903 he was given the degree of Bachelor of Arts, and later took a post-graduate
course in the same school, this being followed by a course at McDonald
Institute, from which he was graduated in 1906 with the degree of Bachelor of
Laws. With this preparation he began practice at Cincinnati, in the office of L.
J. Dolle and later with Mr. Taylor was admitted to the firm of Dolle, Taylor &
O'Donnell. Subsequently Mr. Geisler was taken into the firm, which now bears the
style of'Dolle, Taylor, O'Donnell & Geisler, and which is widely known as a
competent combination, valued as an associate and respected as an opponent. It
carries on a general law business with offices at 704-707 Mercantile Library
Building, 414 Walnut street. During the ten years that he has been a member of
the firm Mr. O'Donnell has contributed materially in the gaining of its prestige
in professional circles. His practice, in connection with the firm mentioned, is
of a general nature, and has won him a substantial reputation. He is a member of
several organizations of his profession, of the Delta Tau Delta college
fraternity and the Phi Beta Kappa honorary fraternity. His religious affiliation
is with St. Mary's Catholic Church, and as a fraternalist he holds membership in
Archbishop Elder Council, No. 1195, tne Knights of Columbus, in which he has
numerous friends, as he has also in professional and social circles of the'
city. August 26, 1909, at Cincinnati, Mr. O'Donnell was united in marriage with
Miss Grace K. Dolle, a daughter of Philip and Philomena (DeBolt) Dolle. Mrs.
O'Donnell is a sister of Louis J. Dolle, law-partner of the firm of which Mr.
O'Donnell is a member. To this union there have been born four children: James
J., Moirh F., David and Richard. Mr. O'Donnell resides at 2889 Erie Avenue, Hyde
Park.
