Harry Goodwin was a British photographer, known for his images of pop musicians and sports personalities. He was the resident photographer of the BBC Television programme Top of the Pops from its inception in 1964 until 1973.
Goodwin first photographed The Beatles in 1963 at The Apollo in Manchester, and went on to have a close relationship with the band. In 2007 Yoko Ono opened a permanent exhibit of Goodwin's photographs at the John Lennon Airport in Liverpool. The exhibit came about after the airport director, Neil Pakey chanced upon some of Goodwin's photographs on display in a Chorlton-cum-Hardy Barber's.
Several Goodwin prints are also in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery in London. And the 2006 exhibit "Beatles on the Balcony" featured Goodwin's work as well.
