Not simply a painter\u2019s studio, it was the center of Warhol\u2019s assembly-line production of films, books, art, and the groundbreaking Interview magazine. Although Warhol\u2019s first Factory on East 47th Street was known for its space-age silver interior, the Union Square Factory became the heart, brain, eyes, and soul of all things Warhol\u2014and was, famously, the site of the assassination attempt that nearly took his life. It also produced a subculture of Factory denizens known as superstars, a collection of talented and ambitious misfits, the most glamorous and provocative of whom was the transgender pioneer Candy Darling.<br \/> \u00a0<br \/> Born James Slattery in Queens in 1944 and raised on Long Island, the author began developing a female identity as a young child. Carefully imitating the sirens of Hollywood\u2019s golden age, young Jimmy had, by his early twenties, transformed into Candy, embodying the essence of silver-screen femininity, and in the process became her true self.<br \/> \u00a0<br \/> Warhol, who found the whole dizzying package irresistible, cast Candy in his films Flesh and Women in Revolt and turned her into the superstar she was born to be. In her writing, Darling provides an illuminating look at what it was like to be transgender at a time when the gay rights movement was coming into its own. Blessed with a candor, wit, and style that inspired not only Warhol, but Tennessee Williams, Lou Reed, and Robert Mapplethorpe, Darling made an indelible mark on American culture during one of its most revolutionary eras. These memoirs depict a talented and tragic heroine who was taken away from us far too soon.<\/p>\n<p> ASIN                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    B00RUSF9Q0   <br \/> Publisher                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    Open Road Media (February 17, 2015)   <br \/> Publication date                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    February 17, 2015   <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    English   <br \/> File size                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    4.4 MB   <br \/> Text-to-Speech                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    Enabled   <br \/> Screen Reader                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    Supported   <br \/> Enhanced typesetting                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    Enabled   <br \/> X-Ray                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    Not Enabled   <br \/> Word Wise                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    Enabled   <br \/> Print length                                    \u200f                                    :                                    \u200e                                    135 pages   <\/p>\n<p><b>Price:<\/b> <span style=\"color:#b12704\"><del>$17.99<\/del> - $11.99<\/span><br \/><i><small>(as of Mar 10, 2025 20:59:54 UTC &#8211; <span class=\"wp_automatic_amazon_disclaimer\" title=\"Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date\/time indicated and are subject to change.
