“Esquire asked me in a questionnaire who I would like to have play me, and I answered Edie Segwick, because she does everything better than I do. It was just a surface question, so I gave them a surface answer.” Andy Warhol 

“Andy Warhol would like to have been Edie Sedgwick. He would like to have been a charming, well-born debutante from Boston. He would like to have been anybody except Andy Warhol.” Truman Capote 

Ciao, Edie! Died on this day fifty years ago: doomed, utterly magnetic Warhol Superstar, scene-maker and socialite Edie Sedgwick (20 April 1943 – 16 November 1971). Pictured: portrait of Sedgwick by Jerry Schatzberg, 1966.
