Iris Caldwell was George Harrison’s girlfriend, before he was in the Beatles, in Liverpool, England, in 1957. She later dated Paul McCartney, in 1962. Her brother was Rory Storm, whose group, The Hurricanes, had as their drummer, Ritchie Starkey, later known as Ringo Starr.
I have so many fond memories of Iris and Winnie Mac also, they were my dance teachers in the 1970′s too,my Mum made all the costumes for my dance troup, and we would do shows all round different venues in Liverpool.Seems like yesterday.
Just found this with my friend talking about iris and the old days. My name’s Rebecca and I’m Winnie mac’s granddaughter. Have loads of old photos you’re probably in some of them. It’s actually 5 years tomorrow (Monday) since my nan passed away. She is still sadly missed but great to have so many memories and seeing the warm comments you’ve written about her are amazing.

Iris was my dance teacher in the 1970′s and made a massive impact on my life. She was energetic, beautiful and a really nice person. Growing up in Liverpool in the 1970′s was great, but Winnie Mac and her made life fantastic. I was the gollywog and gymnast in the theatre production and I remember she organised the wig, make up etc. Amazing
