Early life and education
Born in Skippack, Pennsylvania, to Dr. Samuel and Emma Seipt Wolfe, he received a degree in mechanical engineering from Lehigh University, working in this field in Mexico and Tooele County, Utah. He then received a law degree from the University of Pennsylvania Law School, entering the practice of law in Salt Lake City, Utah, in 1911. He became "associated with the Democratic Party", and remained so throughout his life.
Judicial service
In 1929, he became a Utah district court judge. In 1934, Wolfe defeated incumbent Daniel N. Straup to win election to the state supreme court. Wolfe was re-elected in 1944, and retired in 1954. During his service to the court, he authored nearly 1,000 opinions, and came to be "regarded in legal circles as an authority in constitutional and administrative law and the law of torts".

In 1918, Wolfe married Carolyn Williams, with whom he had four sons and one daughter.
Following his retirement, Wolfe moved to Vineburg, California, and died in Sonoma, California, following a lengthy illness, at the age of 74.
