Maybury, the renowned libertarian writer, was born into a family of achievers on October 10, 1946, in Hamilton, Ohio. His father, Anthony J. Maybury, was an executive at a West Coast coffee company and co-authored the book 'Common Sense Business for Kids'. Maybury's mother, Ruth M. Maybury (née Wellinghoff), was a supportive homemaker who played a vital role in her children's upbringing. Growing up, Maybury was blessed with a large family and had four siblings - David, Linda, Jane, and Debra. His upbringing in a family of over-achievers and educators instilled in him a passion for learning and a love for knowledge that he would later bring to his career as an author and teacher. On August 7, 1967, Maybury tied the knot with Marilyn N. Williams, a woman who would become his rock and support system throughout his life. Their union has lasted over five decades, and together they have raised a family and built a life filled with love and adventure. Maybury's early life was marked by the influence of his family and the pursuit of knowledge, which would later inspire him to become a high school economics teacher and a renowned writer on topics such as economics, law, and history from a libertarian perspective. His family background and early experiences shaped him into the person he is today, and his work has continued to inspire and educate people around the world. -30-
