| NO AUTHOR. A Ceremony for Fred Herko. No publisher,, No date. Paperback. Good. Estimated publishing date 1964, quarto, pink wraps, stapled, 3 pages (unpaginated); printed on rectos only. The program has been folded across (two fold lines) and has several short closed tears on the edges plus one open tear along the outer edge; top outer corners of the first two pages show a faint stain; back top corner is torn away; otherwise, pages are clean and readable. This seems to be a program for a ceremony held to remember the recently deceased Fred Herko (died 1964), an avante-garde dancer and choreographer who knew and performed with virtually everyone associated with Andy Warhol's factory and was a close friend of poet Diane di Prima. He committed suicide by leaping from a 5th-floor window at the end of a spontaneous, informal performance in front of friends. The ceremony consisted of music, words and dance listed in the program by title, author and performer. Performers included Frank O'Hara and Diane di Prima. A momento of a loving tribute to an artist who led a brief, but very creative life within the American art community in New York in the early sixties.
