Mac descended from several Pioneer families of Claiborne Parish, including the Dr. Frances Otto Krouse of the Germantown Colony, George Washington Alexander, who moved into the first permanent cabin erected in Claiborne Parish and rebuilt it for his large family, John Malcolm Walker Camp, early Claiborne parish MD who traveled the areas of Northwest La, East Texas, and South Arkansas as a rural medical practitioner.
Mac is best known for his beautiful piano music and directing Church Choirs. He served as music director at numerous churches and played in many revivals over the years in the North Louisiana area. He also traveled on a musical circuit for a while, playing popular music in various hotels throughout the South.
Mac's early career included working for Jett Petroleum, Sperry Rand La Army Ammunition Plant, where he served as Secretary to the Director of Plant Protection, and Texas and Pacific Railroad, which later became Missouri Pacific and Union Pacific. He started with the railroad in Shreveport and was transferred to Fort Worth where he worked for the Director of the largest train terminal in the United States. He served as Secretary and Investigator for the Director of that terminal.
