At the request of the family, the New York Times published a notice of correction. [cite news|title=Boldface Corrections|work=New York Times|page=11|date=20 December, 2006 |url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9A02E7DC1031F933A15751C1A9609C8B63 | accessdate=2006-03-11]

"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.
