Default Identify this tree

This tree is growing in the yard of a friend. The original owner of his
home was an exotic tree collector. He has many unusual specimens in the
yard. No one seems to know what type of tree this one is. It is
growing in south western New Jersey where it is not unusual for winter
temperatures to drop below 0 on really cold winter nights. The thee is
about 20 feet tall and is probably 25 years old. It is growing below a
canopy of very tall oak trees.

Definitely don't want to 'rake up the leaves' from that tree!

Definitely NOT a catalpa tree. The leaves are too large and the wrong shape.
I think its some hardy tropical species.

It's an Umbrella Magnolia. For sure.
