Author Bio
George Harrison (1943-2001) joined the band that would become The Beatles in 1958, when he was just 14. His richly varied solo career as both musician and producer began with the acclaimed album All Things Must Pass and included the landmark Concert for Bangladesh, considered the first fund-raising rock show, as well as collaborations with musicians such as Ravi Shankar and The Traveling Wilburys. He is also remembered as the producer of such films as Monty Python's Life of Brian and Mona Lisa. George Harrison married Olivia Arias in 1978 and together they have a son, Dhani.
