Alister was born in London, but moved with his parents to the US when he was 4 years old. He caught Meningitis when he was 5 and lost almost all his hearing. He wears hearing aids, but can read lips. He knows how to speak and does communicate orally in his everyday life. He knows Sign Language and teaches a free ASL class at the Community Center on the weekends for parents of deaf kids and those who are just interested in learning.

Alister is a quiet, kind, gentle man. Married with 4 children. His two oldest are 10-year-old boy/girl twins. He also has a 5 year old daughter, Abigail and an infant daughter, Rainy.

He is a family man who loves his children. But he's much closer to his son, Oliver than his other children. Being they are the only males in the family. Abigail prefers her mother, but infant Rainy prefers her father. He and his wife, Annette met in University. They were in the same study group and found they had many common interests. They became fast friends and eventually fell in love.

He enjoys reading, playing Chess and writing. He's a closet intellectual and thoroughly enjoys his career teaching at his local Jr. High School. His deafness hasn't proven to be an issue. He loves teaching and his students enjoy his history class and are patient and understanding of the differences in his class in comparison to their other teachers teaching methods.

In his spare time he writes children's and young adult books. His wife, Annette, illustrates his books. Most of his books started as stories he and his children would make up at bedtime.
