His real name was David Van Cortlandt. Rich family, OLD money. He pretended to be a hippy and got a disproportionate amount of press despite being just a harmonizer.

No. His birth name was David Van Cortlandt Crosby.
Van Cortland was his mother, Crosby was his father, who was a well known Hollywood cinematographer.
Yeah, Crosby was known to be a jerk, but he had a lot more talent than you are giving him credit for. No need to disparage the dead.
