Sharon Tate photographed by Alan Pappe, at her Summitridge Drive home, in California — 1968
"Ah, Sharon, it’s very hard to talk about her without getting a bit weepy. The word exquisite perfectly sums up this lady. Almost other-worldly, so beautiful and sensitive. But in no way wishy washy, she was smart and not taken in by the shallowness of the industry. Well grounded and natural, very much in tune with her life and very happy when I last saw her in London in 1969. A hideous tragedy her being killed and the grotesque speculation of the press. She was such an innocent and unspoilt by her success. I couldn’t recognize any of the Sharon I knew in the newspaper reports. An enormous loss. Too, too sad." — George Harrison
