Riverside Moguls: Wealth and Power in the Hudson Valley’s Gilded Age. Part Two: Titans of Industry

Isabelle Laifer
Building on the theme of part one of his Riverside Moguls series (presented in November), part two, titled "Riverside Moguls: Titans of Industry,” will have Alex Prizgintas focusing on industrialists tied to themes of the Gilded Age beyond railroads, including oil and real estate. Using period images, newspaper articles, and videos, Prizgintas will take his audience on a journey through history, exploring these individuals' careers and the legacies they left in the Hudson Valley through their elaborate properties.
