ABOUT JAMES
HIGH-FLYING
AUTHOR
James Pauley, Jr. was born and raised in a small town in southwestern Michigan. He received his bachelor’s degree from Albion College, with a double major in German and Spanish. Spending a semester each in Guadalajara, Mexico, and Heidelberg, Germany piqued his interest and a lifelong love of international travel. He began his career as a flight attendant in 1978, a job that he continues to enjoy. Throughout his life, he’s worn many other hats as well: massage therapist, real estate agent, house flipper, painter, busboy, groundskeeper, delivery person, wine steward, waiter, babysitter, caterer, house cleaner, bartender, cake decorator, window washer, substitute teacher, janitor, and salesman. He lives with his spouse, Rich, in Indiana.



Hi there and welcome to my website.
I'm James Pauley, Jr., the author of Bumpy Rides and Soft Landings. I've recently retired from my career as a flight attendant and am working on some new projects which I think you'll really like. In the meantime, feel free to look around.
All the best,
James
