Alice Brock is best known as the real Alice from “Alice’s Restaurant,” the classic anti-war song of the 1960’s written by Arlo Guthrie which inspired a 1969 movie of the same name.
But she’s done a lot more than inspire songs and run restaurants. Today she is doing what she’s what she’s always wanted to do – living in Provincetown, Massachusetts and painting pictures.
Alice was a restaurant owner, who with husband Ray Brock lived in a former church in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, where the song's Thanksgiving dinners were actually held. She was a painter and designer, while Ray was an architect and woodworker. Both worked at a nearby private academy, the music- and art-oriented Stockbridge School.
