Edie Factory Girl

Hardcover. NY, VH1 Press , 1st, 2006, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover, 160 pages. She was riveting to look at, a sprite of the zeitgeist, the living distillation of the over-amped vision of New York in the mid-sixties. Like many exotic creatures that Andy Warhol shed his light on, she initially bloomed--became the symbol for all that was hip and stylish--and just as quickly began to disintegrate. Told with unsparing candor, and with images that capture her at the peak of her Factory stardom, Edie Factory Girl is the short but enduring cultural story of Edie Sedgwick--releasing in time for the film of the same name starring Sienna Miller, and including rare photos of Miller as Edie.
