Ever since Professor Beyer read The Da Vinci Code, he became intrigued by Dan Brown's use of facts in fiction. He realized that an examination of the novel could be a tantalizing and entertaining entry into the world of research and evaluating information, and decided to make it the subject of his freshman seminar class at Middlebury College.

Thomas R. Beyer, Jr., a Professor at Middlebury College, has taught numerous seminars on the works of Dan Brown, and is the editor of the online reference guide The Keys to The Da Vinci Code. He and his students are currently working on a wiki devoted to Angels & Demons. He began working on 33 Keys to Unlocking The Lost Symbol three years ago. He is based in Middlebury, Vermont.
