My confidence in myself was restored after two successful exhibitions of my photography, and it occurred to me that I was finally ready to take a look at the unique experiences of my life and to share them--including all the ups and downs. A Q&A with Pattie Boyd, Author of Wonderful TonightWhy are you writing the book now? I have been asked for the last 15 years to write a book, and it is only now that I feel the time is right. When I first saw George on the set, I thought he was the best-looking man I’d ever seen. Then when I heard the song after it had been rec
