Robert MacRae is, first and foremost, a huge nerd.

Beyond that, Robert MacRae grew up in central Ohio, studied theatre at the University of Kentucky, and currently lives in Los Angeles. Over the years, he has led many lives, ranging from dog walking to human tutoring to demigod training. Also—you’re not going to believe to this—he’s a lawyer admitted to the State Bar of California (shout out Loyola Law School class of ‘23).

He published his debut novel, Kingdom of Trash, in 2023 when he should have been studying for the Bar exam. He is also the co-founder of An Important Business Office, an independent theatre company producing absurd comedy around Los Angeles.

Most importantly, he and his partner have assembled a pack of four very good (if neurotic) dogs; Raincoat, Pascal, Persephone, and Paddington.
