Pattie Boyd’s extraordinary life is documented in both her autobiography “Wonderful Tonight: George Harrison, Eric Clapton, And Me” and her limited edition signed photographs. Her book debuted at the top of the New York Times best seller list.

Raised in Kenya and England, Pattie met George Harrison on the set of the Beatles “A Hard Days Night”. She became a successful fashion model in the 60s and 70s.
