Fans in photo by Ringo Starr ID'd

As reported in this week's pop culture roundup, Ringo Starr was hoping to learn the identities of a car full of fans he shot a picture of while on tour with the Beatles in 1964.

Now, it looks as if those fans have been ID'd:
“All this craziness over a picture — it’s pretty darn wild,” said Charlie Schwartz, 67, who lives today in Sonoma, Calif.

That’s him in the back seat of the car, hand partially over his mouth, staring intently — along with five others — at the car that’s pulled alongside. It is carrying, of course, The Beatles.

“It’s just a great shot,” Starr writes in “Photograph,” released earlier this year as an e-book and out in print on Nov. 22. “They’re looking at us, and I’m photographing them.”
