Louise Harrison
Birth : 1931-08-16, England, UK
History
The eldest Harrison child, Louise emigrated from Britain years before George would meet John, Paul, or Ringo, and settled in Benton, IL. By 1963, she was a fierce advocate for her brother’s band, bringing their records to the attention of any radio station who would listen. When the Beatles hit international stardom, Louise was there, experiencing the whirlwind of Beatlemania firsthand. She continued to advocate for them, creating weekly radio reports that gave an honest perspective on the endless — and often salacious — Beatles rumors swirling around.
