A Mysterious Gallimaufry - May 2, 2007 - The New York Sun
Fans of the creator of Lord Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane might like to know that the Dorothy L. Sayers Society is holding its convention in America this year β at Wheaton College, which is just outside Chicago and is the unlikely repository of her papers.
Actually, it’s not at all unlikely that Wheaton College is the repository for Sayers’s papers. Wheaton College is the “Harvard of U.S. evangelicals”, a center for Christian scholarship. Sayers was a devout lifelong Christian.

I know his books will sell because he has a TV show, and my wife still remembers him as that handsome clean-cut guy who made Congress look stupid.
Argh.
