Vincent and Shelly Dunn Fremont Biography

VINCENT FREMONT began working for Andy Warhol shortly after arriving in New York in the summer of 1969, eventually serving as Vice-President of Andy Warhol Enterprises. In the 1970s and 1980s, Vincent produced and developed video, television, and film projects with Warhol, including “Andy Warhol’s Fifteen Minutes” for MTV, “Fight” starring Charles Rydell and Brigid Berlin, and “Phoney.” Fremont was the Associate Producer on Merchant Ivory’s 1989 film adaptation of Tama Janowitz’s “Slaves of New York.” PIE IN THE SKY marks his debut as a documentary film director.

SHELLY DUNN FREMONT attended Parsons School of Design, after which she worked as an art director for, among others, Estee Lauder, Avon Products, and Fashion of the Times magazine. Fremont has had a long association with the art world, working as an artist’s representative, writing gallery reviews for the weekly downtown newspaper 7 Days, and serving as a director at the A/D Gallery. PIE IN THE SKY is her first film. “When I first saw Brigid Berlin it was in the back room of Max’s Kansas City. Brigid was attempting to take off Candy Darling’s wig. It was all for the delight of a German TV camera crew. It was my first look at someone who will do almost anything for a good tape. Brigid and I have known each other for over 30 years. Twelve of those years have been spent trying to tell her life story that is full of extreme and obsessive behavior.”
