Seller Description
During her brief career Marilyn appeared in several classic movies, winning acclaim from the public and critics alike, but despite all her outward success she did not find settled happiness in Hollywood. She frequently played the role of the attractive "dumb blonde," but as an intelligent, talented, and complex woman, it was a stereotype from which she would spend much of her life attempting to escape. She was also haunted by the specter of her unsettled childhood, which appeared to translate into restlessness throughout her life, and a series of failed marriages and pregnancies did nothing to shake off her insecurities. Images of Marilyn Monroe is a superb collection of photographs that tells the story of Marilyn's private and professional life, from her first steps in Hollywood, through her relationships with some of America's most celebrated men, to her success as one of the movie industry's most bankable stars, covering the highs and lows along the way.
