Cultural Links Overview

Liverpool’s cultural links with the USA are probably stronger than anywhere else in the UK,
as you would expect, as it was for many centuries the main point of transatlantic travel.
The cultural links section is sub divided into:
Entertainment – American movie stars Halle Berry, Kim Catterall, Mike Myers, Jeff Bridges and his brother Beau Bridges all had one or more parents or grandparents who were born in Liverpool and later emigrated to America.

Music – The Beatles are the most obvious but there are others.

Literature - Nathaniel Hawthorne, Herman Melville, Washington Irving, Felicia Hemans, Charles Dickens
