'I am tired of myself tonight. I should like to be somebody else.'
When I was searching for stories for today's theme, I cam upon on this series from photographer Jack Mitchell. The 'actor' went by the name of Dorian Gray and is often described as an Andy Warhol superstar. I'm not sure exactly what that means, as I don't think he appeared in any of Warhol's films. I did find a clip of him on Youtube, (HERE:) acting with Candy Darling at Warhol's Factory.
In some places, he's credited as Darling's boyfriend, but like his stage name of Dorian Gray, that may have just been part of the persona he put forward. I couldn't find his real name, nor if he's still alive, but he certainly has that 1970's Dorian Gray look down pat.
