Misha Sedgwick is an actress, model, producer and writer. She has appeared in independent films and plays and is a contributor for the website Harper's Market.[1]

She made her New York stage debut in 2004 as Edie Sedgwick in the off-Broadway play Andy & Edie, about the relationship between Andy Warhol and Edie Sedgwick, Warhol's close companion and inspiration in 1965.[2][3]

In publicity materials for Andy & Edie, she was misidentified as the niece of Edie Sedgwick, and this identification persisted in the media for more than a year.[4][5] In February 2006, Jonathan Sedgwick reported Misha is not his daughter[6]. At the request of the family, the New York Times published a notice of correction.[7]

"The Boldface column on Aug. 5, 2005, about a party marking what would have been Andy Warhol's 77th birthday, referred incorrectly to one guest, an actress named Misha Sedgwick. She is not in fact the niece of Edie Sedgwick, a model and actress in several of Mr. Warhol's films who died in 1971. A relative of Edie Sedgwick sent an e-mail message this past August, challenging the identification of Misha Sedgwick; this correction was delayed for additional reporting."

In 2005, she spent the better part of the year with the production company 10th Grade Reunion which produced the three short films "Missing Girl", "Overthrow the Totems" and "Walter King". "Overthrow the Totems" played in the Queens International Film Festival.
