Inspired by the Berkshires

Description:
A number of authors and other artists have found their muse in the Berkshires. Herman Melville, was one such creative type. The view he had of Mount Greylock from his Pittsfield home inspired him to pen four novels, including his most famous work Moby Dick. Carrie Saldo, the host of Only in the Berkshires webisodes, will introduce you to Melvilles Pittsfield home and another artist inspired by the Berkshires.
