Author Notes:Andy Warhol (1928-1987) changed the way we look at the world, and the way the world looks at art. With his exhaustive observation of cultural trends, he identified ideas, images, and aesthetics shaping the consumer-driven postwar American experience. His legacy continues to influence contemporary culture, and the philanthropic work of the foundation he established has ensured that Warhol's inventive, open-minded spirit continues to have a profound impact on the visual arts long after his untimely passing.



Pat Hackett , editor of THE ANDY WARHOL DIARIES, was one of Warhol's closest confidantes. She co-authored POPism: The Warhol Sixties and Andy Warhol's Party Book with him, and co-authored the screenplay for Bad , Warhol's cult movie classic.
