Top 5 Celebrities Who Live In The Hudson Valley
The Hudson Valley is a great place to live and work. And the fact that we're so close to New York City, makes it an attractive place for famous people to live. They can be back and forth to Manhattan in 90 minutes (on a good traffic day). After doing a little research, I've compiled a list of the top 5 celebrities who live in the Hudson Valley.

Billy Joel
Billy Joel has a place in Highland Falls, NY. I saw him in Kingston on his motorcycle last year. He's a terrible driver, keep your eye out if you spot him.

Robert De Niro
Robert De Niro has a house in Gardiner. Rumor has it he loves when people stop by un-announced. Try it, see what happens.

James Earl Jones
James Earl Jones aka Darth Vader has a house in Pawling. One of the coolest days at the radio station was when he stopped by to record a commercial and ended up posing for pictures with the WRRV staff.
Honorable Mention - Jimmy Fallon
Jimmy Fallon no longer lives in the Hudson Valley, but is from Saugerties originally. He got his start at Banana's Comedy Club in Poughkeepsie. I like to think he tunes into WRRV when he's traveling through the area, right Jimmy?
