"I was thrilled when he wanted to do a portrait of me. It put me in good company with the tins of Campbell's Soup, Elizabeth Taylor and Liza Minelli. I went to The Factory where had a team of people working on his art pieces... Andy shot Polaroids of me for hours then chose the one he liked best. I've got a copy of my finished portrait. It's very precious to me and a great keepsake."
