Fun Fact: Warhol on MTV

February 5, 2007 Lindsay

Did you know that Andy Warhol had a tv show on MTV in 1986? Last week I was working on creating this t-shirt. (Visit WashableWisdom.com for the story behind the quote.)

A visit to Wikipedia’s entry on Andy Warhol and I learned that Warhol had a show, Andy Warhol’s Fifteen Minutes, on MTV.   Cool and kind of unexpected.  I couldn’t find anything else about the show online. Does anyone remember seeing the show? Are there any clips on the show online?
