About the Author

From 1988 to 1997, Evan J. Albright worked as a newspaper editor and reporter on Cape Cod. During that period he won more than two dozen journalism awards, including citations for investigative reporting, editorial writing and four awards for general excellence in newspapers.

In 1996 he began researching what he thought would be a series of articles on the history of Cape Cod crime. After a few days in the public library, it became obvious that there was more material than he originally thought. To date he has penned more than 150 articles and shows no sign of slowing. 

His column on the history of Cape Cod crime and scandal called "Cape Cod Confidential" is a feature at the Cape Cod Today Web site. The column has also appeared in many Cape Cod newspapers, including the Upper Cape Codder, The Register and The Cape Codder. Many of these columns are archived in this Web site.

Albright is currently a director of projects and communications for Reed Business Information, one of the world's largest publishers of business-to-business magazines. RBI has more than 100 different titles in the United States alone, including Daily Variety, Interior Design and Publishers Weekly magazines.

Albright lives on Cape Cod in the town of Bourne with his wife and two children.
