Born in Chicago, Hayes completed a BA in philosophy in 1956 from Quincy University and a ThD in 1964 from the University of Bonn in Germany. While there, one of his professors was Joseph Ratzinger, the future Pope Benedict XVI; Hayes was later the first to translate Ratzinger's habilitation into English.[citation needed]

In 1974, he was appointed Full Professor of systematic theology at the Catholic Theological Union where he taught for 37 years, beginning as one of the founding professors in 1968.[1][2]

He published 16 books and 55 articles.[2] A festschrift was prepared in his honor, entitled That Others May Know and Love and published in 1997.[3]
