The Beatles and Me on Tour with Ivor Davis

Presented by the Friends of the Burbank Public Library

Go behind the scenes of Beatlemania with journalist Ivor Davis, the only daily newspaper reporter embedded with the Beatles during their chaotic, history-making 1964 North American tour.

In the summer of ’64, the Beatles swept across America in a record-breaking, pandemonium-inducing tour that changed music forever. As a young reporter for the London Daily Express, Ivor Davis had unprecedented access to the band for 34 unforgettable days—traveling with them from city to city, sharing their private jet, and witnessing the mania firsthand.

From ghostwriting a newspaper column for George Harrison to late-night Monopoly games with John Lennon, and even being present when Bob Dylan introduced the band to marijuana, Davis was part of the inner circle. Now, he brings those wild, whirlwind days to life with wit and insight in his award-winning book, The Beatles and Me On Tour: 60th Anniversary Edition.

This special edition includes a new introduction and epilogue, 50 FAQs, never-before-seen photos, and more unforgettable stories from inside the eye of the storm. Learn more at ivordavisbooks.com.

Copies of the book will be available for sale—while supplies last—and Ivor Davis will sign books following the program.
