According to the Alumni Department of Montgomery Bell Academy: "The movie "Dead Poets Society" was written by Thomas Schulman, a 1968

graduate of Montgomery Bell Academy. The teacher portrayed by Robin

Williams in the movie was based on one of Mr. Schulman's teachers while he

was at MBA, Mr. Sam Pickering. The events in the movie, however, are purely

fictional." I remember reading an article of a man who claimed to be one of the students that Keating taught years ago but he said that although the story was in essense true, there was no suicide involved. Can't remember where I read the article.
