Early life

Astrid Kirchherr was born in 1938 in Hamburg, Germany, and is the daughter of a former executive of the West German branch of the Ford Motor Company. During World War II she was evacuated to the safety of the Baltic sea, where she remembered seeing dead bodies on the shore after the ships Cap Arcona and the SS Deutschland had been bombed and sunk, and the destruction in Hamburg when she returned.^[1] Following her father's death she was raised by her mother, Nielsa Kirchherr, in Eimsbütteler Strasse in the wealthy Hamburg suburb of Altona.

The Beatles

Print cover featuring an early photo of The Beatles, signed by Astrid Kirchherr.

Kirchherr, Voormann, and Vollmer were friends who had all attended the Meisterschule, and shared the same ideas about fashion, culture and music. In 1960, after Kirchherr and Vollmer had had an argument with Voormann, he wandered down the Reeperbahn (in the St.Pauli district of Hamburg) and heard music coming from the Kaiserkeller club. Voormann walked in and watched a performance by a group called The Silver Beetles.^[9] Voormann asked Kirchherr and Vollmer to listen to this new music, and after visiting the Kaiserkeller the next day, Kirchherr decided that all she wanted to do was to be as close to The Silver Beatles as she could.^[10] They had never heard this new music called Rock n' Roll before, having previously only listened to Trad jazz, with some Nat King Cole and The Platters mixed in.^[7][11] The trio then visited the Kaiserkeller almost every night—arriving at 9 o'clock and sitting by the front of the stage.^[12] Kirchherr later said: Image File history File links No higher resolution available. ...

Sutcliffe was fascinated by the trio, but especially Kirchherr, and thought they looked like "real bohemians". Bill Harry later said that when Kirchherr walked in, every head would immediately turn her way, and that she always captivated the whole room.^[7] Sutcliffe wrote to a friend that he could hardly take his eyes off her, and had tried to talk to Kirchherr during the next break, but she had already left the club. This was due to the strict German law at the time which prohibited young people from frequenting bars after 10 o'clock at night.^[12] In modern usage, the term Bohemian (sometimes shortened to boho) is applied to people who live unconventional, usually artistic, lives. ... Bill Harry was born in Liverpool, England. ...

Sutcliffe managed to meet them eventually, and learned that all three had attended the Meisterschule, which was the same type of art college that Lennon and Sutcliffe had attended in Liverpool.^[7] Kirchherr asked The Beatles if they would mind letting her take photographs of them in a photo session, which impressed them, as other groups only had snapshots that were taken by friends. The next morning Kirchherr took photographs in a municipal park called "der Dom" which was close to the Reeperbahn, and in the afternoon she took them all (minus Best who decided not to go) to her mother's house in Altona.^[13] Kirchherr's bedroom (which was all in black, including the furniture, with silver foil on the walls and a large tree branch suspended from the ceiling) was decorated especially for Voormann, whom she had a relationship with, although after the visits to the Kaiserkeller their relationship became purely platonic. Kirchherr started dating Sutcliffe, although she always remained close friends with Voormann.^[5][14] Snapshots often capture memorable moments with family in imperfect images. ...

After meeting Kirchherr, Lennon filled his letters to Cynthia Powell (his girlfriend at the time) with "Astrid said this, Astrid did that" which made Powell jealous, until she read that Sutcliffe was in a relationship with Kirchherr.^[15] When Powell visited Hamburg with Dot Rhone (Paul McCartney's girlfriend at the time) in April 1961, they stayed at Kirchherr's house.^[16] In August 1963, Kirchherr met Lennon and Cynthia Lennon in Paris while they both there for a belated honeymoon, as Kirchherr was there with a girlfriend for a few days holiday. The four of them went from wine bar to wine bar, and finally ended up back at Kirchherr's lodgings, where all four fell asleep on Kirchherr's single bed.^[17] Cynthia Lillian Lennon née Powell (born September 10, 1939) in Blackpool, Lancashire, England. ...

The Beatles met Kirchherr again in Hamburg in 1966, when they were touring Germany. Kirchherr gave Lennon the letters he had written to Sutcliffe during 1961 and 1962, and Lennon said that it was, "The best present I've had in years".^[18]

The Beatles' haircut

Kirchherr is credited with inventing the Beatles' moptop haircut, although she disagrees, and is quoted in The Beatles Off The Record by Keith Badman as saying: The moptop hairstyle is defined by a shaggy bowlcut (straight cut with a straight fringe), usually hanging over the ears. ...

In 1995, Kirchherr told BBC Radio Merseyside:

Stuart Sutcliffe

Sutcliffe and Kirchherr in 1960.

Stuart Sutcliffe wrote to friends that he was infatuated by Kirchherr, and asked her friends which colours, films, books and painters she liked, and who she fancied. Best commented that the beginning of their relationship was, "like one of those fairy stories".^[21] Kirchherr and Sutcliffe got engaged in November 1960, and exchanged rings, as is the German custom.^[22] Sutcliffe later wrote to his parents that he was engaged to Kirchherr, which they were shocked to learn, as they thought he would give up his career as an artist.^[23] Sutcliffe later borrowed money from Kirchherr for the airfare to fly back to Liverpool in February 1961, although he returned to Hamburg in March.^[24][25] Stuart Fergusson Victor Sutcliffe (23 June 1940 – 10 April 1962) was a British musician and artist who, until his early death, worked in a style related to Abstract Expressionism. ...

Kirchherr and Sutcliffe went to Liverpool in the summer of 1961, as Kirchherr wanted to meet Sutcliffe's family (and to see Liverpool) before their marriage. Everybody was expecting a strange beatnik artist from Hamburg, but Kirchherr turned up at the Sutcliffe's house in Aigburth, Liverpool, bearing a single long-stemmed orchid in her hand as a present, and dressed in a round-necked cashmere sweater and tailored skirt.^[26] Beatnik cartoon Beatnik is a media stereotype that borrowed the most superficial aspects of the Beat Generation literary movement of the 1950s to present a distorted, cartoon-like misrepresentation of the real-life people found in Jack Kerouacs autobiographical fiction. ...

Sutcliffe collapsed in the middle of an art class in Hamburg. He was suffering from intense headaches, and Kirchherr's mother had German doctors perform various checks on him, although they were unable to determine exactly what was causing the headaches. While living at the Kirchherrs' house in Hamburg his condition got worse. On 10 April 1962, Sutcliffe was taken to a hospital—Kirchherr rode with him in the ambulance—but Sutcliffe died before the ambulance reached the hospital.^[27] Three days later Kirchherr met The Beatles at the Hamburg airport, and told them that Sutcliffe had died from a brain haemorrhage.^[28] is the 100th day of the year (101st in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Photography

Kirchherr talked about how difficult it was to be accepted as a female photographer in the 1960s:

In 1964 Kirchherr became a freelance photographer, and with her colleague Max Scheler she took "behind the scenes" photographs of The Beatles during the filming of "A Hard Day's Night", as an assignment for the German STERN magazine.^[30] Harrison later asked Kirchherr to arrange the cover of his Wonderwall Music album in 1969.^[29] A freelancer or (freelance worker) is a self-employed person working in a profession or trade in which full-time employment is also common. ... A Hard Days Night (1964) is a British comedy film originally released by United Artists, written by Alun Owen and starring the The Beatles during the height of Beatlemania. ... Wonderwall Music was George Harrisons first solo album and the soundtrack to the film Wonderwall. ...

Kirchherr and Scheler put an advertisement in the Liverpool Echo in 1964, stating that any group who wanted their photograph taken in front of St. George's Hall would be paid £1 per musician, but over 200 groups turned up on the day, which meant Kirchherr and Scheler soon ran out of money.^[8][31] The Liverpool Echo and Liverpool Daily Post are two newspapers published by Trinity Mirror on Merseyside in the United Kingdom. ... Main Entrance to the Hall St Georges Hall is a neo-classical building in Liverpool city centre located on Lime Street, opposite Lime Street railway station. ...

Kirchherr didn't publish the photographs until 1995, in a book called Liverpool Days, which is a limited edition collection of black-and-white photographs.^[8] In 1999, a companion book called Hamburg days was published (a two-volume limited edition) containing a set of photographs by Kirchherr and "memory drawings" by Voormann. The drawings are recollections of places and situations that Voormann clearly remembers, but Kirchherr had never photographed, or had lost the photographs.^[32] Kirchherr was quoted as saying that When We Was Fab (Genesis Publications 2007) would be her last book of photographs: Genesis Publications is a british publishing company specialized in art books of pop and rock ans rolls artists photos. ...

Kirchherr has expressed respect for other photographers, such as Annie Leibowitz (because of the humour in her work) Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, Jim Rakete and Reinhard Wolf (German Wikipedia) and french film-makers François Truffaut, and Jean Cocteau.^[34] Anna-Lou (Annie) Leibovitz (born October 2, American photographer. ...

François Roland Truffaut (French IPA: ) (February 6, 1932 – October 21, 1984) was one of the founders of the French New Wave in filmmaking, and remains an icon of the French film industry. ... Jean Cocteau Jean Maurice Eugène Clément Cocteau (July 5, 1889 – October 11, 1963) was a French poet, novelist, dramatist, designer, boxing manager and filmmaker. ...

Kirchherr said that her favourite photos are the ones she took of Sutcliffe by the Baltic sea, and of Lennon and George Harrison in her attic room at Eimsbütteler Strasse. She has expressed reservations about digital photography, saying that a photographer should concentrate on the art of photography and not on the technical results, although admitting that she knows nothing about computers, and is "afraid of the internet".^[34]

Kirchherr admits that she is not good at business as she is not organised enough, and has never really looked after the negatives of her photographs to prove ownership.^[29] Her business partner Ulf Krüger—a songwriter and record producer—successfully found many of Astrid's negatives and photographs and had them copyrighted, although he believes that Kirchherr has lost £500,000 over the years because of people using her photographs without permission.^[29]

In July 2001 Kirchherr visited Liverpool to open an exhibition of her work at the Mathew Street art gallery, which is close to the former site of the Cavern Club.^[35] She appeared as a guest at the city's Beatles' Week Festival during the August Bank Holiday.^[36] Kirchherr's work has been exhibited internationally in places such as, Hamburg, Bremen, London, Liverpool, New York City, Washington, D.C., Tokyo, Vienna, and at the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame.^[37] Mathew Street is a famous street in Liverpool, England, probably most well-known for being the location of the Cavern Club, where The Beatles played many concerts early in their career. ...

Later life

In 1967, Kirchherr married English drummer Gibson Kemp, who had replaced Ringo Starr in Rory Storm and the Hurricanes.^[38] The marriage ended in divorce after seven years.^[7] Astrid subsequently married a German businessman, but they divorced in 1985.^[39] Richard Starkey, MBE (born 7 July 1940), known by his stage name Ringo Starr, is an Academy Award and Grammy Award-winning English musician, singer and actor, best known as the drummer of The Beatles. ... debjit ...

Kirchherr worked as an advisor on the film Backbeat, which portrayed Kirchherr, Sutcliffe and The Beatles during their early days in Hamburg.^[8] She was especially impressed with Stephen Dorff (who played Sutcliffe in the film) commenting that he was the right age (19-years-old at the time) and the way he smoked, talked and gestures were so like Sutcliffe's that she had goose pimples.
