Albert Teichner, also published as Albert R. Teichner, was an American science fiction author active in the 1960s and 1970s. Bibliographic sources link him with a run of short fiction and novels including The Junkmakers (1961), The Wellsprings of Space (1961), World in a Mirror (1962), and Cerebrum (1963).
His stories appeared in the magazine era of science fiction, and several have remained accessible through public-domain and volunteer reading projects, which has helped keep his work in circulation long after its first publication. That continuing afterlife makes him a familiar name to readers who enjoy classic paperback science fiction and rediscoverable magazine fiction.
Reliable biographical detail beyond his publishing record is limited in the sources I could confirm, so it seems safest to remember him mainly through the fiction itself: compact, concept-heavy stories from a lively period in American SF.
