Summary
"[S]uch painters as Larry Rivers, Elaine de Kooning, Helen Frankenthaler, and Marisol, critics Clement Greenberg and Harold Rosenberg, composers Virgil Thomson and Ned Rorem, writers such as Jack Gelber and John Ashbery, and art dealers Sidney Janis and Betty Parsons all describe in ... interviews how they 'made the scene, ' with whom, and why. Poet Bill Berkson talks about his close friend Frank O'Hara, Lee Krasner recalls her life with Jackson Pollock, and the late William Flanagan, composer and music critic, describes the early days of Edward Albee."--Page 2 of cover.
