We All Shine On: John, Yoko, and Me

A personal and revealing look at the last 10 years of John Lennon’s life and his partnership with Yoko Ono, written by the friend who knew them best, publicist and music industry insider Elliot Mintz.

Elliot Mintz spent his life working with some of the biggest names in show biz, but perhaps the most important and influential partnership he had was his work and close friendship with John Lennon and Yoko Ono. 

In his memoir, Mintz will reflect on his time with John and Yoko, including stories of how he met the couple, the private hotline that he had with them both, the couple's move into the Dakota, their brief split, John’s famous “lost weekend”, John meeting with Elvis, Bob Dylan, and Salvador Dali, the Christmas dinner Mintz shared with John, Yoko, and Paul and Linda McCartney, the search for Yoko’s missing daughter Kyoko, the CIA and FBI’s surveillance of the couple, as well as Sean Lennon’s birth and childhood, a relationship that resulted in Sean Lennon still thinking of Elliot as his uncle today.

Perfect for Beatles fans and music lovers, this book will provide an extremely intimate and revealing portrait of John and Yoko as people, partners, and friends.
