- Dorothy Stratten's story was brief, glorious and tragic. She was born Dorothy Ruth Hoogstraten on February 28, 1960 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. She grew up in a rough neighborhood in Vancouver, but kept out of trouble and went through the motions of school. While not a beauty as a child, nor early teen, Stratten came into her own out of high school and attracted the attention of Paul Snider, a promoter and wannabe star. He started dating her and after seeing an advertisement for Playboy's 25th Anniversary Playmate search in 1978, convinced her to pose for photos. Playboy saw the potential in Stratten and flew her out to Los Angeles, California, where she became a candidate. Although she lost out to Candy Loving, Stratten was made a Playmate in the August 1979 issue of Playboy. Soon after, she was pressured into marrying Snider, who had a Svengali-like influence on her.
After her centerfold came out, Stratten found work in a few movies, notably Americathon (1979) and Skatetown U.S.A. (1979), as well as being the object of Richard Dawson's affection in an ABC-TV special shot at the Playboy mansion. Clearly, her star was on the rise. In 1980, it was revealed that Stratten would be tabbed as the Playmate of the Year by Playboy publisher and founder Hugh Hefner. While this was one of the crowning achievements of her career, things were not going well in her marriage to Snider. He bothered her on the set of the movie Galaxina (1980) and when Snider found out she was developing more than a friendly relationship with director Peter Bogdanovich, Snider grew increasingly frustrated.
After a separation, Snider bought a shotgun and talked Stratten into coming to the apartment they used to share in West Los Angeles. Snider tied her up, sexually assaulted her and put the shotgun next to her face and pulled the trigger. Snider then turned the shotgun on himself to complete the murder-suicide. Since her death, Stratten has become something of a minor cult fixture, and has had two (one a television) movies, a song, and a couple of books written about her. The last movie she was in, They All Laughed (1981), was released after her death. - Kelly Drew was born on 9 October 1960 in Newport News, Virginia, USA.

Basquiat also made drawings on paper, sheet metal, T-shirts and other materials. And assemblages were created from scrap. In 1980 he took part in an exhibition together with Jenny Holzer, John Ahearn and several other artists. The following year, the medium "Artforum" reported on Basquiat in a major article.
Further exhibitions followed, which contributed to his popularity. He presented his work in 1981 at the exhibition "New York, New Wave" at P.S.1. His contacts with the director Julian Schnabel, who made a film about Basquiat in 1996, as well as other acquaintances with artists such as the American painter Willem de Kooning also advanced his career - also in the international art scene.

B. Wayne Keeton was a mystery character his entire life that few people knew about. Very little information exists on his personal life aside that he was born as Robert Wayne Keeton in rural Louisiana. He grew up in extreme poverty and was raised by his mother and grandmother after being abandoned by his father. He received little formal education and once claimed that his older 17-year-old brother killed himself on Christmas day when Keeton was age 13. When Keeton was age 15 or 16, he came out as a homosexual to his family who supposedly reacted by throwing him out of their house and onto the street.
Keeton then drifted around the Deep South and made a living as a hustler, pickpocket, thief and con artist. For a time in the late 1970s he lived in Houston, Texas, and was a regular at Mary's--a well-known leather dive hangout for gay men--before migrating west to Los Angeles, where he worked at odd jobs which included a restaurant waiter, cashier, construction worker, LA Metro bus driver, taxi driver, etc.
At one point in 1985, Keeton met exploitation film director and playwright Andy Milligan while Keeton was working as a dishwasher in a seedy eatery in the San Fernando Valley. Milligan recruited him as a crew member and actor for his new film company, Troupe West. Keeton moved in with Milligan and the two soon became lovers. Keeton had a bit part as a drug dealer killed in Milligan's film Monstrosity (1987) He would also work on the set manning the slate, the sound recorder, and even buy food for the cast and crew.
Keeton was also said to have continued his hustling lifestyle during the time he was with Milligan. He received a disability check from the state for $650 a month for an injury he suffered while working at a construction site in the early 1980s, and would spend it all in three or four days on alcohol, drugs, cigarettes or a combination of all three. He continued to drift in and out of jail on minor offenses from drunk and disorderly, to solicitation, to possession of narcotics. Sometimes Milligan bailed him out of jail and sometimes he didn't, but every time Keeton would come back to him.
Keeton was diagnosed with AIDS sometime in 1988, as he was seen taking a bus to and from a Los Angeles hospital during the filming of Milligan's last film, Surgikill (1989). In December of that year he traveled to his hometown in Louisiana for Christmas to meet and say goodbye to what family he had living there. He returned a few days after New Years Day in 1989, claiming that his illness made him a pariah and no one in his family wanted to be near him. Although he was nearly illiterate his whole life, he turned to his Baptist roots and began attending church as well as trying to read the Bible. He was said to have purchased stuffed toy animals during his final months as he traveled to the hospital for treatment.

Through "Skai TV" she proved herself a worthy adversary to the veteran comedians and a talented comedienne in her own right. But sadly her promising career was cut tragically short. After celebrating Norway's national day on the 17th of May, she was walking home (in the capital city of Oslo) when she fell into Akerselva (the Aker river) and drowned.
