The event will showcase and exhibit of photographs from Ringo's acclaimed book, Another Day in the Life. Released as a limited edition in December 2018 and in hardcover bookstore format this year, the 184-page book offers an inspiring look at the world through Ringo's eyes, with more than 500 photographs highlighting his love of music, nature, and travel from Los Angeles to Tokyo and all places in between.

The third in his series of photography books (Postcards from the Boys, 2003; Photograph, 2013), Another Day in the Life is introduced and narrated in Ringo's own words and includes forewords by David Lynch and Henry Diltz, one of Morrison Hotel Gallery's own featured photographers.

The previously-unpublished photographs range from the colorful and quirky, such as a shot of rainbow-colored boots and teal tap shoes given to the Beatles drummer by the late Keith Moon. They also feature history-making moments including the Beatles' historic walk across Abbey Road, Ringo's acceptance of a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, his return to the Plaza Hotel in New York City 50 years after the Beatles set off the first wave of the British Invasion. Ringo is joined in the book by Paul McCartney, Joe Walsh, and a lineup of friends from his All-Starr Band and beyond.

"I love taking photos of random things, and seeing how they all fit together," Starr says. "Whether it is at home or on the road, certain things catch my eye - and when I see something that interests me, that's the emotion of it, and I want to capture it. I am a photographer as well as a musician."

Guests at the event will have the opportunity to purchase a number of exclusive, limited edition signed prints and books. These include limited edition fine art prints of photographs from the book which will be unveiled for the first time at the Morrison Hotel Gallery event. Six limited edition prints signed by Ringo will be available at the event (out of a total of 40 limited edition prints in existence).
