Andy Worhol

One of my favorite photographers is Andy Worhol. The first time I ever saw his work was in 8th grade when I was doing a project on Marilyn Monroe. Andy Worhol was born in Pittsburg in 1928. Through out high school he was very good with artwork and later graduating in 1949. He overcame many obstacles and achieved many first. He was the first one to have a one man showing at the Hugo Gallery in New York, and also worked for Vouge and other top magazines. He was thought to have a very strange personality and was nearly killed during his life. On February 22, 1987 Warhol died due to complications of his gall bladder. Nearly 2,000 people attending his funeral.

Here is some of his work:
