Remembering Astrid Kirchherr, the German artist and photographer born May 20, 1938. Astrid photographed the Beatles during their early formative days in Hamburg Germany, and she also fashioned the group's trademark hairstyle for them. Photos by Astrid Kirchherr.

A black and white photo taken in Astrid’s Hamburg attic in 1962. John Lennon is seated while George Harrison is standing behind John’s left shoulder. Both men are wearing leather jackets and are staring off to the side. Shadows and light cover most of the portrait, and empty chairs and art supplies are seen in the background. Photo by Astrid Kirchherr.

A “mirrored” black and white self-portrait of Astrid taken in Hamburg in 1960. She is looking directly into the mirror at us, with her camera positioned in front of her body and her right hand holding the flash mechanism. Astrid wears a dark long sleeved shirt and her hair is cut short. A tree branch covers the upper half of the portrait, and a rosebud sits on the mirror’s upper frame. Photo by Astrid Kirchherr.
