Formal Education: Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina; Master of Business Administration, University of Chicago Graduate School of Business, Chicago, Illinois.

Writing Experience: This includes about 500 articles, columns, programs and reviews for dozens of print publications, including local newspapers and computer magazines with worldwide circulation. During my "computer period" in the 1980's I was a prolific and well-known writer on Commodore subjects. I wrote dozens of articles, two books (one of them translated into Italian) and several very popular columns, most notably the Magic column in RUN magazine. My work was reprinted in six other books that I know of. Though my computer writing spanned all the computers of the day, it stopped when Commodore faded from the scene. Since then, most of my writing has been for newsletters, web sites, corporate research reports, etc., though I occasionally do an article for a magazine. In the not-formally-published-by-others category, I've written or compiled almost 300 online obituaries, about a hundred poems, and over 125 new articles in online encyclopedias. I maintain two large web sites: www.ussrankin.org and www.Louis.Sander.com

Career: I am retired from a career that included service as a Naval Officer, manager, sales executive, and market researcher. In retirement I teach logic, mathematics, critical thinking, management and practical computer subjects at the college level. Most of my business career was spent in medically-related high-tech industries. I have been a founder of, or made key long-term leadership contributions to, seven non-trivial organizations.

I have contributed these articles to Citizendium:
