Pattie Boyd (a.k.a. “Layla”)?

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

I never got to mention that she inspired a number of songs, including:

"I Need You" (Harrison)

"If I Needed Someone" (Harrison)

"Love You To" (Harrison)

"Something" (Harrison)

"For You Blue" (Harrison)

"Layla" (Clapton)

"Bell Bottom Blues" (Clapton)

"Wonderful Tonight" (Clapton)

"Golden Ring" (Clapton)

"The Shape You're In" (Clapton)

According to my daughter, "Something" is George singing, "I love my wife", "Layla" is Eric singing, "I love George's wife", and "Wonderful Tonight" is Eric singing, "I love my wife, who used to be George's wife.

George used to refer to Eric as his husband-in-law.

I was also going to mention that her first exhibition of her photography came 40 years after she started taking pictures.

And, of course, the guess of Desmond Tutu was interesting because one of George's bandmates wrote a song in which the protagonist is named Desmond. (Jones, of course, not Tutu, but still . . . .)

I was born Dec 12, 1975 (making me currently age 45).

I was born in San Diego, but my parents were Jewish immigrants who'd previously lived in The Bronx (having immigrated there from Europe).

I am perhaps best known for my roles in two popular TV series, although they ran more than a decade apart from each other.

By George, no and no.
