"Taking Woodstock" is the funny, touching, and true story of
Elliot Tiber, the man who was instrumental in arranging the site
for the original Woodstock Concert. Elliot, whose parents owned an
upstate New York motel, was working in Greenwich Village in the
summer of 1969. He socialized with the likes of Truman Capote,
Tennessee Williams, and photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, and yet
somehow managed to keep his gay life a secret from his family. Then
on Friday, June 28, Elliot walked into the Stonewall Inn and
witnessed the riot that would galvanize the American gay movement
and enable him to take stock of his own lifestyle. And on July 15,
when Elliot learned that the Woodstock Concert promoters were
unable to stage the show in Wallkill, he offered to find them a new
venue. Soon he was swept up in a vortex that would change his life
forever."
