As many of you know, actress Kathleen Beller was one of the village's most notable residents. Here she is in 1982 and ABC's Dynasty. For more about Beller and her time on Dynasty, click here.

NEXT UP, Peter Strauss---who got his start in the Croton Shakespeare Festival--and Kathleen Quinlan in the 1996 TV drama, IN THE LAKE IN THE WOODS. 

Based on the novel of the same name (read about it here), you can see the film via Amazon here.  We really enjoyed watching this one again.

And finally, while the name is only known in certain circles today, a look back at LINCOLN STEFFENS. 

Steffens was a leading investigative journalist in his time--he is remembered for investigating corruption in municipal government in American cities and for his leftist values. His enthusiasm for communism soured by the time his memoirs appeared in 1931. We stumbled upon this 1931 photo of him and his son at their Croton home. Read more about him here.
