In Warhol’s Muses, acclaimed biographer Laurence Leamer delves into the lives of the enigmatic women who inspired and featured in Warhol’s iconic underground films, including The Chelsea Girls, The Nude Restaurant, and Blue Movie. Drawn to the vibrant Manhattan scene of the 1960s, these women left their protected backgrounds to enter Warhol’s notorious Factory, a place from which they could never return to their previous lives. Amid casual sex, pervasive drug use, and raucous parties, Warhol viewed everyone as fleeting and replaceable. This perilous dynamic culminated in a life-changing event when he was shot at the Factory on a summer day in 1968.

Warhol’s Muses examines the stories of ten captivating women, takes us into a period of significant change and upheaval, and reveals the life and creative legacy of one of history’s most renowned artists.
