Early life and education


Beirne was born in Bronxville, New York and grew up in Milford, Connecticut. His parents, Sheila (former fashion buyer) and Thomas (former businessman and politician), were interested in American history, and would often take young Beirne to history and war reenactments. He is a descendant of US President James Madison, the “Father of the Constitution”.
Beirne was a Fulbright Scholar at Queen's University, where he studied economics. He earned his J.D. degree from Yale Law School, where he received the Edgar M. Cullen Prize for his constitutional scholarship and was awarded an Olin Fellowship to write on presidential power. He studied international business transactions under the direction of Amy Chua, who is known for her memoir, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother. In 2009, Beirne was admitted as an attorney to both the New York and Connecticut bars.




Career


He is the Chief Executive Officer of Matterhorn Transactions, which provides data analytics to thousands of law firms across the US, Canada, and UK, and is a faculty fellow at Yale Law School’s Information Society Project. He teaches Ethics in Markets, Financial Markets and Corporate Law at Yale. He has invested in and co-founded a museum systems company called Collection Harbor and a music software business called Artusi.
After his Fulbright Fellowship at Queen's University, Beirne worked for the private equity arm of GE Capital before entering Yale Law School. While Beirne was still attending law school, he was a summer associate at the law firm Sullivan and Cromwell, and subsequently worked as an attorney there after graduation. He was also an investment banker at J.P. Morgan & Co.
His first book, Blood of Tyrants: George Washington, the Forging of the Presidency, began as his thesis at Yale Law School. He is represented by literary agents Writers Reps. While doing research for the book, he discovered letters written by Washington in his ancestors' house.
