He was one of six siblings. Throughout his childhood, he moved frequently, and lived in South Carolina, Florida, and Georgia. Growing up, he did not have a Jewish education and frequently lived in towns that did not have synagogues. However, his family kept kosher throughout his childhood. \u003c/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAlbert remembers hunting and skinning animals with his father when they lived in South Carolina. When Albert was five, his father moved to Florida and invested in real estate before the Florida real estate bubble crashed in 1926. The family lived there for one year before they moved to Savannah, Georgia. While the family was living in Savannah, Albert was hit by a car on West Broad Street that was involved in an auto theft. He made a full recovery. The family moved to Sylvania, where Albert and his family lived for five years, from 1928-1933.

He only went for one year and attended when he was only 16. He worked at a ladies shoes shop from then until he joined the Navy as a pilot. Albert had dreamed of being a pilot since he was six years old and recalled creating and flying kites. He took his flight training at Georgia Military Academy in College Park. He was then sent to various bases throughout Georgia and Tennessee before being sent to Pensacola. He became a commissioned pilot in 1944 and trained for night fighting. Albert recalled patrolling the Atlantic for German U-boats. He made the 17,000th landing on the USS Wasp.

At the time, she was living in Charleston, South Carolina and he would fly his plane from Atlanta to go see her. Albert also attended Emory Dental School. He opened up his practice in Norcross and was the only dentist there. He eventually moved his practice to Buckhead. Albert went into practice in 1951 and married Joyce in 1952. The two had four children and six grandchildren. Albert passed away in 2009 at the age of 88.\u003c/p\u003e (bioghist)","\u003cp\u003eAlbert begins by discussing his hometown of Elloree, South Carolina, and his childhood. He describes his father’s businesses throughout South Carolina, Florida, and Georgia. Specifically, he discusses how his father participated in the Florida housing market before the real estate bubble collapsed in the 1920s and his father’s work as a fur trapper. Albert recalls helping his father catch and skin animals in the South Carolina swamps. He describes how his father came to the US when he was 15, and how he sold goods to people in rural Virginia and worked as a shohet.

Albert tells a story about his brother and his father before describing how he and his family kept kosher.
