The two-day event is the result of the tireless efforts of Kathleen Spaltro and the dedicated volunteers behind the non-profit Woodstock Celebrates Inc., which also plans to mark the 100th anniversary of Orson Welles’ birth next spring.
Todd Tarbox, grandson of Roger Hill, and author of Orson Welles and Roger Hill: A Friendship in Three Acts, delivered the opening address before nearly 75 Welles aficionados and introduced the moderator and guest speakers for the event.
In his opening remarks, Mr. Tarbox recalled Welles’ childhood, education at the former Todd School for Boys; the summer 1934 theatrical festival, which marked Welles’ professional debut as a stage director; and the late actor-director’s relationship with Hill, his mentor and lifelong friend.
Mr. Tarbox has graciously allowed Wellesnet to share his opening address in its entirety.

From 1926 to 1936, his parents ran a rooming house called the Wells-Grand Hotel that also served as a meeting place for people from all walks of life. Terkel credited his understanding of humanity and social interaction to the tenants and visitors who gathered in the lobby there and the people who congregated in nearby Bughouse Square.
In 1939, he married Ida Goldberg (1912–1999), and the couple had one son. Although he received his undergraduate degree in 1932 and a J.D. degree from the University of Chic
