Sure, the Hudson Valley is known for famous residents, especially over the past couple of years. There are lots of movies being filmed in our area, so it’s not that unusual to spot a star every now and then. We have lots of movie and rock stars. But there are other kinds of stars. Like Duke Devlin.
If you’ve never heard of Duke Devlin, you’re missing out on a fascinating story. In a nutshell, Duke Devlin came to Bethel, N.Y. back in 1969. He wasn’t originally in the area for the Woodstock Arts and Music Festival, but since he WAS in the area, he headed to Bethel, got a job working at the festival and never left. That’s right, he stayed in Bethel. Duke got a good job at Sullivan Boces, and he made a nice life for himself. And his life in Bethel all started at the Woodstock Festival in 1969. A lot people who attended that festival got to know Duke.
