Page "Valerie Solanas" Paragraph 8

In 1967, Solanas encountered Andy Warhol outside his studio, The Factory, and asked him to produce her play.

He accepted the script for review and told Solanas that it was " well typed " and promised to read it.

According to Factory lore, Warhol, whose films were often shut down by the police for obscenity, thought the script was so pornographic that it must have been a police trap.

Solanas contacted Warhol about the script, and was told that he had lost it.

He also jokingly offered her a job at the Factory as a typist.

Insulted, Solanas demanded money for the lost manuscript.

Instead, Warhol paid her $ 25 to appear in his film, I, A Man.
