We propose to complete a program of deep Spitzer observations of a mass-selected and redshift-independent sample of galaxy clusters detected by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) using the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect (SZE). The proposed deep IRAC observations of 22 massive, newly-discovered, optically confirmed SZE clusters will provide an unprecedented window to study the properties of high redshift lensed background galaxies and an unbiased census of the stellar mass content in massive clusters out to redshifts of 1. The clusters are located within the footprint of SDSS Stripe 82, providing deep optical (ugriz) data. The proposed Spitzer observations are part of an intensive multi-wavelength campaign to produce an unbiased, well-observed sample of massive galaxy clusters out to high redshifts for cosmological investigations.
