It is with deep sadness and great regret that we have to announce the death of American playwright, screenwriter, novelist, and essayist Ronald Tavel. We were notified Wednesday afternoon that Tavel died on his return to Bangkok from Berlin.
Ronald Tavel is perhaps best known as the screenwriter for numerous Andy Warhol films in 1965-6, including The Life of Juanita Castro, Kitchen, Vinyl, and Horse. In 1965 he worked with director John Vaccaro and artist Jack Smith to present two Warhol screenplays on stage. This collaboration lead to the formation of the seminal theater movement known as the "Theatre rz tss Uxmfqblqgz."
