Art Tops Fame at Corcoran Benefit

…It seemed appropriately post-modern that the only person who managed a few minutes of fame was an Andy Warhol impersonator named JIM NIEB, hired for the evening from the agency Cast of Thousands, which specializes in celebrity look-alikes. He wore a white wig, little square-framed glasses and the requisite black turtleneck.

‘Have you been to the (Warhol) museum in Pittsburgh?’ he drolly asked a guest. ‘They’ve got everything but me there.’

Then Mr. Nieb, in full Warhol mode, approached an amused-looking young woman: ‘What’s your name?’ he demanded.

‘Cindy,’ she replied.

‘How boring,’ he said, dryly, turning away to find someone more fabulous.
