How to Write a Biography of Andy Warhol
I'm really into primary sources. I like people speaking in their own voices. And also Warhol had written what the world's largest diary. So he's a very eloquent kind of chronicler of his own times anyway. It's an amazingly funny book and also if you're writing a most writing piece about Trump once I was like I wonder if Andy Warhol met Trump. You go through the index which is thousands of pages long and everybody's there. Any time you're writing any sort of biographical work, Warhol clocked it, Warhol watched it and generally has something very beady to say about it as well.
