== Life and work ==
In 1926, according to his friend Sidney Allinson, writing in 'George Markstein and The Prisoner', Markstein was born in Berlin, Germany,〔Bruce Edler, (George Markstein ), All Movie Guide,〕 but emigrated with his family to England with the rise of Nazism. It is likely that he lived in the United States during his youth, then moved to Britain. Markstein worked as a newspaper reporter for the ''Southport Guardian'' of Southport England in 1947. Markstein later became a journalist for the American military tabloid, the ''Overseas Weekly''. Due to its scandal-driven content, the paper's U.S. G.I. readership referred to the paper as the ''Over Sexed Weekly''.〔This was noted by ''Time'' magazine.〕 The masthead of the newspaper lists Markstein as head of the London desk.〔
He moved into television, first on the factual series ''This Week'',〔''Six Into One: The Prisoner File'', WTVA/Illuminations for Channel 4, 1984; 〕 before acting as story consultant and contributing to multiple episodes of ITC's ''Court Martial'' (1966), and then joining ''Danger Man'' as story consultant for the last black-and-white episode (1966), then story editor for the two episodes which were made in colour (1967). Around this time he also wrote four episodes for Rediffusion's children's drama series ''Send Foster'' (1967), and worked on the script for Peter Yates's ''Robbery'' (1967), a fictionalised feature film based on the 1963 Great Train Robbery.
'George Markstein and The Prisoner', published by pandqmedia in June 2014, ISBN 978-0-9929054-0-8, contains a detailed biography of Markstein and reproduction of his letters, interviews, photographs, even Christmas cards.
