    Author of Happiness is Seeing The Beatles

    Sara’s book is Dear Beatle People: The Story of The Beatles North American Fan Club.
    This book was highly anticipated. The cover and inside illustrations are by Beatle artist Eric Cash. Mark Lewisohn gave his blessing on the book and allowed it to use a few interviews he conducted for Tune In. The book is 377 pages with over 100 photographs, many in color. No one has ever written about the Beatles Fan Clubs, especially the ones in the United States. Uncovered are some great stories that have never been heard before about fan club officers meeting The Beatles in person during their U.S. tours and at their homes.  There are also many extra fun things in the book for fans to discover.

    Sara Schmidt is a second-generation Beatles fan who runs the popular website “Meet The Beatles…For Real.” She is the author of the book “Happiness is Seeing The Beatles: Beatlemania in St. Louis,” and “Dear Beatle People: The Beatles North American Fan Clubs.”
