John, Paul, George, Ringo... and Linda

No longer just the pretty face who caught Paul’s eye,

Linda McCartney has bigger things in mind

Linda Louise McCartney    1941-1998

 born Eastman

wife of the former Beatle

Paul McCartney

and a photographer

whose portraits

of 1960's rock stars

have become classics

(...)

Besides her work

as a photographer,

Ms. McCartney performed

as a keyboardist

and backup singer

in two of her husband's

post-Beatles bands, Wings

and the unnamed ensemble

that toured in 1989 and 1993.

She was

a staunch campaigner

for animal rights

and vegetarianism and,

starting in the late 1980's,

she turned her passion

for vegetarian cooking

into an industry.
