Albert Macklin

Albert Macklin was a male Human who lived in the 20th century. In the 1950s, he was an writer who wrote science fiction stories for the Incredible Tales of Scientific Wonder magazine. Macklin was particularly fond of robots.

Macklin read Benny Russell's Deep Space Nine story and, after Douglas Pabst refused to publish it, suggested that Russell make the story a dream. Macklin later sold a novel to Gnome Press called Infrastructure. He planned to make it the first of three volumes of novels focusing on robots. 

Macklin once worked as a mechanical engineer. He was of the belief that robots could not hurt humans and had written several laws in his stories to that effect. 

Russell based the character of Miles O'Brien on Macklin.
