About this book...
Edie Sedgwick met Warhol at the age of 22 and became a part of the Factory scene. She gained fame through starring in several of Andy Warhol's unusual films such as Beauty II and Vinyl. This fascinating book takes a look at the Sedgwick family starting with Edie's great, great, great grandfather Judge Theodore Sedgwick and ending with her tragic death at the age of 28. Through firsthand accounts of Edie's siblings, cousins, and friends, Edie: American Girl thoroughly analyzes Edie's family and her life as she grew up. Also, it explicitly examines the time Edie spent with Warhol and their friends at the Factory. A family tree and an abundance of black and white photographs compliment this comprehensive book.
