Born in 1940 in Liverpool England, Ringo was known by his family to have a particular gift for drumming. He spent most of his early years playing in a band called Rory Storm and the Hurricanes. After playing in London, he met with soon-to-be Beatle John Lennon and Sir Paul McCartney and was asked to replace the Beatles former drummer.

He also acted in such films as 200 Motels (1971), That’ll Be the Day (1973) and Son of Dracula (1974). He also starred in the comedy Caveman (1981) where he met his future wife Barbara Bach.
