We propose deep and wide-field IRAC and MIPS imaging of two galaxy clusters at 1.5 < z < 1.6. The IRAC data will be used to measure the faint-end of the infrared luminosity function. We will combine the deep Spitzer data with existing optical data to make the first measurement of the stellar mass function in very high redshift cluster galaxies. The MIPS 24 micron data will be used for quantifying the dusty star formation rate and AGN activity as a function of radius from the cluster center. A key component of this proposal is the 10 x 10 arcminute field of view (5 x 5 Mpc at the clusters' redshift). By extending into the cluster 'infall' region, we will probe the region where the majority of 24 micron sources are expected to lie.
