Mario Montez (pseudonym of Rene Rivera, born in Ponce, Puerto Rico[1] in 1935) was one of the Warhol superstars, appearing in thirteen of Andy Warhol's underground films from 1964 to 1966. He took his name as a male homage to the actress Maria Montez, an important gay icon in the fifties and sixties.
