Rides Bike

When he's not in his office delving
into other writers' work on
Reed, Dr. Bean is either attending
rounds at University Hospital
or riding his bicycle between
"Morea" and the University.

"Other biographies on Reed
seem to have sampled very poorly
some of the sources available,"
he said.

In the interest of the book he
plans to be the most thorough
Reed biography, Dr. Bean is examining
every facet of Reed's life
so that he can turn the "ghost"
in his office into a flesh-and-blood
man on paper.
