Riverside Moguls: Wealth and Power in the Hudson Valley
From the Vanderbilts of Hyde Park to Jay Gould’s purchase of Tarrytown’s Lyndhurst estate, the vast land holdings of E. H. Harriman in Orange County, and Ogden Livingston Mills’ Staatsburgh Estate, the Hudson Valley has been home to many of the Gilded Age’s most illustrious, and infamous, titans of industry. Though their empires were not always centered in New York, the glamorous estates of these nineteenth-century moguls offer glimpses into a rich era of the past that binds the nation with the Hudson Valley. Join author, historian, musician, and preservationist Alex Prizgintas for a special two-part showing of Riverside Moguls at the Suffern Free Library later this month. Part one of this program, titled “Rise of Steel Rails,” focuses on five figures from the growth of American Railroads and will take place on Wednesday, October 22nd at 1:30 PM. Following this, part two titled “Titans of Industry” will be shown the following week on Wednesday, October 29th at 1:30 PM. A graduate of Marist College with degrees in Hudson River Valley History and Public Administration, Alex has been published in the Hudson River Valley Review, New York Archives Magazine, and Orange County Historical Society Journal on topics including Hudson River railroad history, Orange County’s dairy farming history, and the region’s early settlers. He serves as president of the Woodbury Historical Society and town historian of Woodbury in Orange County, New York.
