...artists, Andy Warhol. 31, best plays the part of what a pop artist might expectably be. In his studio, a single pop tune may blare from his phonograph over and over again. Movie magazines, Elvis Presley albums, copies of Teen Pinups and Teen Stars Albums litter the place. Warhol is known for his literal renditions of soup cans, his rows of Marilyn Monroe, Liz Taylor and Troy Donahue. He stencils them onto the canvas by the silk-screen process, then touches in the colors.

And Quinn, though his dese and his dose and his freeform nose get tiresome after awhile, nevertheless gives a heartfelt...

He reduced the women to squeals of delight with his rugged good looks. He was able and eager to dance an Irish jig when the occasion demanded. He spoke of the issues in stern, confident tones. He campaigned unabashedly on the claim that his influence would be felt in Washington on his brother's New Frontier. His slogan: "He can do more for Massachusetts...
