Albert Graham Ingalls (January 16, 1888–August 13, 1958) was an American scientific editor and amateur astronomer.
He worked odd jobs, including telegraph operator, until enlisting in the New York National Guard and serving in France during World War I.
The article was so well received that Ingalls began a series of columns on amateur telescope making, some written in collaboration with Porter.
Ingalls and Porter became close friends and the two men remained at the center of the American amateur telescope making community for the next thirty years.
[2] During World War II, Ingalls organized the work of amateur telescope makers to help overcome the shortage of roof prisms for military instruments.
