The author of Everything Goes to the Dogs was a Melbourne university lifer, who excelled as a business ethics researcher and was the only Australian in the prestigious Journal of Business Ethics list of leading global business ethics scholars. He spent thirteen years as editor of a leading British ethics research journal and for three years was the President of Australia’s largest applied ethics association. He also helped convene Melbourne ethics conferences. Billy Albert is the pen name of an Australian satirist. So why the pen name Billy Albert? Well because of his marvellous mother-in-law! A beautiful woman filled with intelligence, integrity and humour. Her name was Birdie Albert. If there is a heaven she will read my satire there and laugh out loud. I chose the pen name Billy Albert to honour her memory.
