Exhibition Label: “Big Shots: Andy Warhol, Celebrity Culture and the 1980s,” Aug-2009, Susan Earle This striking image of a young Jane Fonda was published in Esquire magazine in 1960. Fonda got to know Warhol soon after this picture was taken, and in 1969 she took Warhol to a Los Angeles preview of her brother Peter Fonda’s first movie, Easy Rider. She later posed for a portrait by Warhol in 1982 (she brought her own makeup person and hairdresser to the sitting). Leiter was a painter and photographer who became known for his fashion photography in the 1950s and ‘60s.
