Ingrid Barbara Sischy () (March 2, 1952 – July 24, 2015) was a South African-born American writer and art critic who focused on art, photography, and fashion, and was most well known as the editor of Andy Warhol's ''Interview Magazine'' from 1989 until 2008 as well as her powerful connections and friendships with many in the art community. Until her death in 2015, she and her girlfriend and partner, Sandra Brant, worked together as the international editors of the Italian, Spanish, and German versions of ''Vanity Fair''. ==Early life== Sischy was born in Johannesburg to Ben Sischy, a family doctor who became an expert in radiation oncology, and Claire Sischy, a speech therapist. She had two older brothers, Mark Sischy, a lawyer who lived in Scotland, and David Sischy, a doctor.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/MediaLibraries/URMCMedia/giving/documents/RadOnc_slipsheet_web.pdf )〕 Her family was Jewish; they had Lithuanian ancestry. In 1961, when Sischy was nine years old, the Sischy family left Apartheid-era South Africa after the Sharpeville massacre and moved to Edinburgh, Scotland, where Dr. Sischy retrained in radiology (after being a family doctor for 20 years). The family had to leave South Africa because Sischy's mother, who was involved in a group called the Black Sash that non-violently protested Apartheid, was in danger of being arrested. In 1967, the family moved to Rochester, New York, where Sischy's father became the head of radiation oncology at Highland Hospital. While in Scotland, she attended George Watson's Ladies College. In Rochester, she graduated from Brighton High School, where she was the president of the senior class.〔 Sischy started college at Sarah Lawrence College during a time of great political unrest in the United States. During her college years, she came out as a lesbian, and took writing classes with Grace Paley.〔 She graduated from Sarah Lawrence in 1973.〔 She received an honorary PhD in the humanities from the Moore College of Art in 1987.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ingrid Sischy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
