A young, aspiring writer desperate for a break...and the legendary
Andy Warhol superstar who gave him the story of a lifetime.

By the mid-1980s, Holly Woodlawn, once lauded
by George Cukor for her performance in the 1970 Warhol production and Paul
Morrissey directed Trash, was washed up. Over. Kaput. She was living in
a squalid Hollywood apartment with her dog and bottles of Chardonnay. A chance meeting with starry-eyed corn-fed Missouri-born Jeff Copeland, who moved to Hollywood with dreams of 'making it' as a television writer, changed the course of BOTH of their lives forever.

Love You Madly, Holly Woodlawn is a story of how an unlikely
friendship with a young gay writer and an, ahem, mature trans actress and performer
created the bestselling autobiography of 1991, A Low Life in High Heels. This
book about writing a book is a celebration of chutzpa and love as Holly, the embodiment of Auntie Mame, introduces Jeff to the glamorous (and sometimes
larcenous) world of a Warhol Superstar. In turn, Jeff uses his writing (and typing) talent to give
Holly the second chance at fame she craved.

In turns hilarious and heartwarming, Love You Madly, Holly
Woodlawn
is a portrait of the real Holly who loved deeply, laughed loudly,
and left mayhem in her wake.

Industry Reviews
"Jeff Copeland has an astonishing, ridiculous, wonderful, one-of-kind task to tell us about his decade-long Hollywood involvement with one of Warhol's Factory alumni: someone larger-than-life, beyond gender, a law unto him/herself --but in the end, all too human. It's an impossible task, of course. But Copeland tells it with brio, humor, intelligence, and most of all, heart. As Holly would have said: Its fa-ha-habulous!"--Felice Picano, author of dozens of books including the bestselling, Joy of Gay Sex (2006)

"Jeff Copeland's remembrances of working with and getting to know Warhol Superstar Holly Woodlawn make for a 'walk on the wild side' that provides a glimpse into a complicated, hilarious person with a real gift. His affection for Holly--even as she drunkenly claims 'You ruined my life!'--makes this romp truly worth the journey." Michael Musto, columnist and critic, and author of many books including Fork on the Left, Knife in the Back (2011)
