Unbelievable! — The Netherlands Beatles Unlimited Magazine You are the Yellow Submarine Oracle. —Mark Lewisohn, Beatles archivist From the Author Robert R. Hieronimus, Ph.D., has been on a mission since 1968 to discover the hidden reality behind The Beatles' Yellow Submarine. His 2002 book, co-authored with Laura E. Cortner, Inside the Yellow Submarine, was called "an indispensable companion to the movie" ( Animation World), and he has lectured on the subject around the world including at Abbey Road in London. "Hieronimus has a talent for winning the cooperation of the establishment while he lives and works in the counter-culture," said art critic Alan Barnet, as evidenced by his gigantic symbolic murals such as the 2,700 square foot prophetic "Apocalypse" mural at the Johns Hopkins University (1968/69, restored 2015), and "Historic Views of Baltimore" at the Baltimore Courthouse. In the 1960s, he traveled with rock and roll bands to teach meditation and design album covers and posters. His artcars include the "We the People" biodiesel Mercedes (2006/2008), and the internationally famous "Light," the Woodstock VW Bus, from 1968/69, recreated in 2018. In 1969 Hieronimus founded AUM, the first state-approved school of esoteric studies in the country. He received his Ph.D. from Saybrook Graduate School in 1981, and his doctoral research on the symbolism of the Reverse of the Great Seal of the United States has been used by the White House, State Department, Department of the Interior, and published in the Congressional Record. He is interviewed frequently on the History Channel, Discovery, Nat Geo, BBC, etc. His radio interview program, 21st Century Radio®, exploring consciousness and alternate realities, has been on the air since 1988, the longest-running of its kind. From the Back Cover "Once upon a time ... or maybe twice ... there was a place called Pepperland." And that colorful fantasy land was in jeopardy of falling under the control of the Blue Meanies until John, Paul, George, and Ringo showed up in their Yellow Sub to save the day. Dr. Robert Hieronimus has spent nearly three decades learning the untold story of The Beatles' animated classic. In Inside The Yellow Submarine, he shares how a most extraordinary film was made in a most extraordinary way.
