Julian Francis Abele (April 30, 1881 – April 23, 1950) was a prominent black American architect, and chief designer in the offices of Horace Trumbauer. He contributed to the design of more than 400 buildings, including the Widener Memorial Library at Harvard University (1912–15), Philadelphia's Central Library (1917–27),[3] the Philadelphia Museum of Art (1914–28),[4] and Eisenlohr Hall, home of the presidents of the University of Pennsylvania.[5]
Abele was the primary designer of the west campus of Duke University (1924–54).[6] His contributions to the Trumbauer firm were great, but the only building for which Abele claimed authorship during Trumbauer's lifetime was Duke Memorial Chapel (1930-35). Following Trumbauer's 1938 death, Abele co-headed the architectural firm and designed additional buildings at Duke, including Allen Administrative Building and Cameron Indoor Stadium.[7]
