Dorothy Dean (December 22, 1932–February 13, 1987) was an African American socialite, connected to Andy Warhol's The Factory—for which she appeared in the films ''Batman Dracula'' (1964), ''Space'' (1965), ''My Hustler'' (1965), ''Afternoon'' (1965), and ''Chelsea Girls'' (1966)—and Max's Kansas City, where she worked as door person. She also appeared in the documentary film ''Superartist'' (1967) about Warhol and his films. Dean, who graduated from Radcliffe and earned an MFA at Harvard, had a master's degree in art. While living in Cambridge, Massachusetts, she began associating almost entirely with gay white men, presumably in an effort to distance herself from the politics surrounding being both black and female in the fifties and sixties, politics with which she did not identify.〔(Watson, Steven. ''Factory Made: Andy Warhol and the Sixties.'' New York: Pantheon books, 2003 ) 〕 She was loved for her strong, verbose personality, perhaps mostly for her playful phrasing and clever nicknames (Andy Warhol, to Dean, became "Drella," a combination of Dracula and Cinderella; James Baldwin was "Martin Luther Queen"). She rarely worked; she held brief editorial and proofreading positions at publications such as ''The New Yorker'' and ''Vogue'' magazines. Born in White Plains, New York in 1932, she died of cancer in Boulder, Colorado on February 13, 1987.〔http://www.warholstars.org/indfoto/idorothy.html〕 Dean is one of the subjects of Hilton Als' 1996 book ''The Women''.〔 〕〔 〕 ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dorothy Dean」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
