Perks of having a famous Dad...
These girls are the American newscaster from CBS Evening News at the time, Walter Cronkrite's daughters. According to legend, Ed Sullivan asked Cronkrite what he thought about the Beatles prior to having them on his show. Walter asked his teen-aged girls about the guys, and they started to scream. So Ed made sure the teens had tickets to see the Beatles play on his show as well has a chance to meet them (pictured here). Kathy was 13 and Nancy was 15 when they met the Beatles in 1964. Kathy was quoted at the time as saying, "their accents are so heavenly and their hair is so adorable. Our father doesn't really like our reaction very much, but we can't help it."
