Al was about 6'2", slim build, brown hair and eyes. He worked as an assistant sales manager for the National Oat Co. in St. Louis and as a regional sales manager for the International Accountant Society in Chicago and St. Louis. He started his own business selling ‘Sparkletts' water in Chicago during the depression and the business failed.

Creative writing was his first love though he was not able to support his family on his income from it but he had many short stories published during the early 20th century in 'pulp' fiction magazines.

Al and his brother Robert and sister May were placed in the Protestant Children's Orphan's Asylum at 330 N. Gore Ave., Webster Groves, MO on July 30 1890 by their father after the death of their mother. The children stayed until Feb 3, 1892 when they were removed by their father after his second marriage.
