\nBeat memoirist Herbert Huncke will feature actress\/author Tatum O’Neal, performance artist
\nEdgar Oliver, writer Jack Walls, video artist Anne Hanavan, screenwriter Jeremiah Newton,
\nWarhol Superstar Taylor Mead, poet Ira Cohen, photographer Dash Snow, and plenty of others

\nunderground and outsider luminaries showed up, including artist Andre Serrano, poet Gerard
\nMalanga, photographer Ryan McGinley, writer Victor Bockris, writer Larry “Ratso” Sloman,
\npublishers and writers Foxy Kidd and Romy Ashby, and performance artists Edgar Oliver, Penny
