Ciphers and puzzles fascinated Poe, occasionally surfacing in his writings.  Popular forms of brainteasers were developed since his lifetime, and one of the best known forms today is the crossword puzzle.  Come join us for a discussion led by crossword puzzle creator Evan Binholz.  Evan's handiwork has appeared in such papers as the New York Times and the Washington Post.
