Noob import question - adding books by genre, ln, fn . . .

I have read many post on this forum and the Calibre help file and find myself even more confused than ever.
I am trying to get calibre to import from a directory structure of:
<Genre><Author (Last, First)><Series><Title> i.e.
Science Fiction\Anthony, Peirs\Adept Series\ Adept Series 01 - Split Infinity.lit
Science Fiction\Anthony, Peirs\Adept Series\ Adept Series 02 - Blue Adept.lit
. . .

Science Fiction\Anthony, Peirs\Incarnations Series\ Incarnations Series 01 - On a Pale Horse.lit

to recap I want Calibre to store files as genre\author (last, first)\Series\filiename including series number\

Most important is ln,fn followed by series.
I have tried changing the add books preference and by manage authors but I would have to edit every author. It seems with such a powerful program having the author's listed as last name , First Name would be easy. For me at least it is not.
