After graduation he moved to New York where he worked as and illustrator for magazines such as Vogue and The New Yorker. His first piece in an art gallery was in 1962, showing his "32 Campbell's Soup Cans." Most of Warhols best work followed in the next six years.

Later he created two cable TV Shows in the 1990s. Warhol died on Feb. 22,1987 after a surgery. The andy Warhol Museum opened in Pittsburh, Pennsylvania in May 1994.
