The top half says, "I want to be Twiggy," the bottom half wants to go into a Burlesque chorus line or stage magic. Yo.

She was pre-Twiggy. Edie was tthe original item. The blond waif. The skinny sixties socialite tart. It was probably taken by Billy Name, he took most of the photos back then, then he went crazy and lived in a dark room for months. Then he went all new age and I think he wrote about about astral projection or something...

Edie re-incarnated... not really... maybe better? Probably worse, but in any case alive after 27:
go to ediesedgwick(dot)biz

ps,

astral projection is not an indication of madness. it's a WAY OF LIFE.
