Background
Information
Albert Isaac is a writer and editor living in North Central Florida. Albert studied English, Journalism, Music and Film at the University of Florida, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in English. He then followed the next most logical career path of any well-intentioned English graduate and went to work for the Medical Examiner's Office. Stayed 20 years. However, within him the writer remained and in his spare time he re-wrote a story he had started years before. In 2005, he published ENDLESS, a futuristic look into the consequences of living in a society that never suffers, never grows old, never dies. In 2013 he completed UTOPIA REVISITED - his follow-up to ENDLESS - and LIFE SO FAR (VOL I & II), which is a collection of his columns and essays. He still plans to write a novel about his experiences working in the fascinating and gruesome field of forensic death investigation. Albert is currently a freelance writer as well as a columnist for the High Springs Observer, and the former editor-in-chief for Tower Publications, where he oversaw Senior Times Magazine and the Our Town Magazines.
