Was geraldine Edwards Robert palmers girlfriend and the woman who dated Eric clapton rick springfield roger daltry and others the woman almost famous was written about?

Yes she was. Geraldine Edwards met Cameron Crowe in San Diego, California, in 1975 backstage at the San Diego Sports Arena. At the time Cameron Crowe was interested in being a Sports Writer and was a fan of the San Diego Gulls. Geraldine suggested that he widen his range and interview all types of people, including musicians. He took her advice and found that he actually preferred interviewing musicians. It was written in some articles that Pam DeBarres and Bebe Buell were partial inspirations for the Penny Lane character. That is not correct. Penny Lane was eighteen years old and a San Diegan who was a groupie who hung around the "World Famous San Diego Sports Arena." That was the history of Geraldine Edwards, not DeBarres and Buell. In addition to that, Cameron Crowe cited Geraldine's name as the inspiration for Penny Lane in an 2000 interview.

I am friends with Geraldine Edwards' niece who works for her aunt at her law firm in Los Angeles as an attorney. No, Geraldine Edwards does not have a Facebook account under any of her names, which would be Geraldine Edwards, Geraldine Angel Edwards or Geraldine Flemming-Mueller, if you were looking. She does now go by her married name, which is Geraldine Flemming-Mueller, in general, as she has been married since February of 2006 to her husband and business partner, Anthony Flemming-Mueller. She does not think there is anything wrong with having a Facebook account, she would simply prefer not to have one. She stays in contact with her friends and family the old-fashioned way, by phone, e-mail, texting, and writing letters. According to her niece, she prefers the personal touch, in addition to which she prefers to maintain her anonymity. She is a fan of technology and has said that she thinks that Facebook is a great social media and business tool, if used correctly, but it is just not for her.
