An Interview with Photographer, Christophe von Hohenberg

On April 1, 1987, two thousand invited guests arrived on foot, taxi and limousine at Fifth Avenue and 50th Street to walk through a throng of curious onlookers held back by NYPD blue, wooden barriers. Stationed in front of the cathedral, von Hohenberg took over 600 photos of what Grace Glueck of the New York Times called the "most droppable names” in the world of Hollywood, fashion, music, international society and art. He captured a veritable time capsule of the epochal era that Warhol helped shape.
