Linda McCartney, behind the Lens

In her first television profile, Linda McCartney talks about her life in photography and, with husband Paul, about the difficulties of being married to a Beatle and how she has coped over the years with a mixed press. She is probably better known for being the wife of a Beatle and a committed vegetarian than for the photographic career she's followed for 30 years. But in the late 60s she was a pioneer of early rock photography and when Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison or the Beatles wanted pictures taken, they would ask for Linda Eastman , as she then was.
