Biography

Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts started as the private estate of Walter Rosen and his wife Lucie Bigelow Dodge. The couple purchased the building in 1928. They began hosting musical evenings for friends in the 1940s, and by 1946, they had established Caramoor as a Center for music and arts. The venue became so popular that the couple had to open different theaters. In 1974, Lucie Dodge designed a new wing to house even more events.
