After a successful career as a commercial illustrator, Warhol became famous worldwide for his work as a painter, an avant-garde filmmaker, a record producer, an author, and a public figure known for his membership in wildly diverse social circles that included bohemian street people, distinguished intellectuals, Hollywood celebrities and wealthy aristocrats. A controversial figure during his lifetime (his work was often derided by critics as a hoax, or "put-on"), Warhol has been the subject of numerous retrospective exhibitions, books, feature and documentary films since his death in 1987. http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi... http://www.warholfoundation.org/ http://www.warhol.org/ http://www.region.sk/warhol/ http://www.warholstars.org/ http://www.popartmasters.com/toc.html#ma... http://oldarchive.godspy.com/culture/And... http://www.adcglobal.org/archive/hof/199... http://www.kutv.com/content/blogs/featur... http://x-traonline.org/past_articles.php...
