Mr. Mac
grew up in Virginia Beach, Virginia. His father was in the Navy, though, so his
family moved quite a bit - 11 times. He lived his entire life in the South
before moving briefly to California (southern California, naturally). He was born in Mississippi; at one point his family
moved even further south . . . to Cuba. (As residents, not as enemy combatants.) He attended the
University of Virginia, receiving a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry. Several
years later, he received his Master's degree in Chemistry from the University of
North Carolina-Wilmington. His thesis title was "The Effect of Benthic Macrofauna on the Complexation and Speciation of Dissolved Zinc and Copper
in the Cape Fear River Estuary." (Whew!)
While
attending UNC-W, Mr. Mac met his wife.
(They actually met in the computer lab of the
Chemistry building!) She spent two years in
Washington,
D.C. getting her Master's degree at George Washington University. She now works as a forensic scientist in the
crime lab of the Wilmington Police Department. She has a badge and isn't afraid of you.
