Patti D'Arbanville

Patricia "Patti" D'Arbanville (born May 25, 1951) is an American actress known for her appearance in Andy Warhol projects.

Career After appearing in Flesh (1968), D'Arbanville performed in Warhol's L'Amour (1973), and as the title character in the David Hamilton film Bilitis (1977).

D'Arbanville has worked in film and television series in the United States and France, including her role as Lt. Virginia Cooper on the Fox series New York Undercover.

D'Arbanville left Stevens for periods of time to continue her modeling career in Paris and New York City, and was a part of Warhol's Factory scene. In an interview with Warhol, she said that she had heard the song "Lady D'Arbanville":

Stevens wrote that song "Lady D'Arbanville" when I left for New York. I left for a month, it wasn't the end of the world was it? But he wrote this whole song about "Lady D'Arbanville, why do you sleep so still." It's about me dead. So while I was in New York, for him it was like I was lying in a coffin... He wrote that because he missed me, because he was down... It's a sad song.

D'Arbanville later had a relationship with actor Don Johnson from 1981 to 1985. The couple had a son, Jesse Wayne Johnson (born December 7, 1982).
