Charles Albert is a poet and author of short stories and novels. He lives with his wife and children in San Jose, California, which is surely going to be a hotbed of cockroach activity after everything goes south.

Anthony Albert is a polyglot, an artist, a Burning-man haibitue, and a dorian-gray enigma all wrapped up in one fastidous bundle of hunkiness. You would be lucky to sit next to him at a dinner party.
