Valerie Solanas

" Harding believed that Solanas' assassination attempt on Warhol was its own theatrical performance. Because of her rebellious behavior her mother sent her to be raised by her grandparents in 1949. And I believe I would've pulled the switch on her myself.

Her alcoholic grandfather physically abused her and Solanas ran away and became homeless. Solanas relocated to Berkeley California. She shot at Warhol three times with the first two shots missing and the final wounding Warhol.
