Robert Olivo (June 16, 1937 – August 28, 1989), better known by his stage name Ondine, was an American actor.
He is best known for appearing in a series of films in the mid-1960s by Andy Warhol, whom he claimed to have met in 1961 at an orgy:I was at an orgy, and he [Warhol] was, ah, this great presence in the back of the room.
And this orgy was run by a friend of mine, and, so, I said to this person, 'Would you please mind throwing that thing [Warhol] out of here?' And that thing was thrown out of there, and when he came up to me the next time, he said to me, 'Nobody has ever thrown me out of a party.' He said, 'You know? Don't you know who I am?' And I said, 'Well, I don't give a good flying fuck who you are.
You just weren't there.
You weren't involved...' Ondine also appeared in films made by his lover, Roger Jacoby, Dream Sphinx Opera, L'Amico Fried's Glamorous Friends and Kunst Life.In later years, Ondine supported himself by showing Warhol films and delivering a lecture on his days as a Warhol "superstar" on the college circuit.
He died of liver disease in Queens, New York, in 1989 at the age of 52.
He is portrayed in the film I Shot Andy Warhol by Michael Imperioli.
