MARILYN MONROE BIO


(June 1,1926– August 5, 1962), born Norma Jeane Mortenson, but baptized Norma Jeane Baker, was an American actress,singer and model. After spendingmuch of her childhood in foster homes,Monroe began acareer as a model, which led to afilm contract in 1946. Her earlyfilm appearances were minor, but herperformances in The Asphalt Jungle and All About Eve (both 1950)were well received. By 1953, Monroehad progressed to leading roles. Her"dumb blonde" persona was used to comedic effect in such films as GentlemenPrefer Blondes (1953), How toMarry a Millionaire (1953) and The Seven Year Itch (1955). Limited by typecasting,Monroe studiedat the Actors Studio to broaden her range,and her dramatic performance in Bus Stop (1956) was hailed by critics, and she received a Golden Globe nomination. Her production company,Marilyn Monroe Productions, releasedThe Prince and the Showgirl (1957),for which she received a BAFTA Award nomination and won a David di Donatelloaward. She received a Golden GlobeAward for her performance in Some Like It Hot (1959).

The final years of Monroe's life were marked by illness, personal problems,and a reputation for being unreliable and difficult to work with. The circumstances of her death, from an overdose of barbiturates, have been the subject of conjecture. Though officially classified as a "probablesuicide", the possibility of anaccidental overdose, as well as thepossibility of homicide, have notbeen ruled out. In 1999, Monroewas ranked as the sixth greatest female star of all time by the American FilmInstitute. In the years and decadesfollowing her death, Monroe has often beencited as a pop and cultural icon.

Monroe was born in the Los AngelesCounty Hospitalon June 1, 1926, as Norma Jeane Mortenson (soon after changed toBaker), the third child born toGladys Pearl Baker, née Monroe (1902–1984).

Monroe's birth certificate names the father as Martin EdwardMortensen with his residence stated as "unknown". The name Mortenson is listed as her surname on thebirth certificate, although Gladysimmediately had it changed to Baker,the surname of her first husband and which she still used.Martin's surname was misspelled on the birth certificate leading to moreconfusion on who her actual father was.Gladys Baker had married a Martin E.Mortensen in 1924, but they hadseparated before Gladys' pregnancy.Several of Monroe'sbiographers suggest that Gladys Baker used his name to avoid the stigma ofillegitimacy. Mortensen died at theage of 85, and Monroe's birth certificate, together with her parents' marriage and divorcedocuments, were discovered. The documents showed that Mortensen filed fordivorce from Gladys on March 5, 1927, and it was finalized on October 15, 1928.

Throughout her life,Marilyn Monroe denied that Mortensen was her father.She said that, when she was a child, she had been shown a photograph of a man thatGladys identified as her father,Charles Stanley Gifford. Sheremembered that he had a thin mustache and somewhat resembled Clark Gable, and that she had amused herself by pretending thatGable was her father.

Gladys was mentally unstable and financiallyunable to care for the young Norma Jeane,so she placed her with foster parents Albert and Ida Bolender of Hawthorne, California,where she lived until she was seven.

While living with the Bolenders, an unusual incident occurred.One day, Gladys came to theBolenders and demanded that Norma Jeane be released back into her care. Ida knew that Gladys was unstable at the time andinsisted that this situation would not benefit Norma Jeane. Unwilling to cooperate,Gladys managed to pull Ida into the yard while she ran inside the house, locking the door behind her.After several minutes, Gladys walkedout of the front door with one of Albert Bolender's military duffel bags. To Ida's horror,Gladys had stuffed the now screaming Norma Jeane inside the bag, zipped it up,and proceeded to leave the house.Ida charged towards Gladys and the quarrel resulted in the bag splitting open. Norma Jeane fell out and began weeping loudly asIda grabbed her and pulled her back inside the house,away from Gladys. This was just oneof the many bizarre exchanges between young Norma Jeane and her disturbedmother.

In 1933,Gladys bought a house and brought Norma Jeane to live with her. A few months after moving in,however, Gladys suffered a mentalbreakdown, beginning a series ofmental episodes that would plague her for the rest of her life. In My Story,Monroe recalls her mother "screaming andlaughing" as she was forcibly removed to the StateHospital in Norwalk.Norma Jeane was declared a ward of the state,and Gladys' best friend, Grace McKee, became her guardian.It was Grace who had told Monroethat someday she would become a movie star.Grace was captivated by Jean Harlow,and would let Norma Jeane wear makeup and take her out to get her hair curled. They would go to the movies together, forming the basis for Norma Jeane's fascinationwith the cinema and the stars on screen.

Grace McKee married Ervin Silliman (Doc)Goddard in 1935, and nine-year-oldNorma Jeane was sent to the Los Angeles Orphans Home (later renamed Hollygrove), and then to a succession of foster homes. During the time at Hollygrove, several families were interested in adopting her;however, reluctance on Gladys' partto sign adoption papers thwarted those attempts.In 1937, Grace took Norma Jeane backto live with her, Goddard, and one of Goddard's daughters from a previousmarriage. This arrangement did notlast for long, as Doc Goddard attemptedon several occasions to sexually assault her.Disturbed by this, Grace sent her tolive with her great-aunt, OliveBrunings in Compton, California. This arrangement also did not last long, as 12-year-old Norma Jeane was assaulted (somereports say sexually) by one of Olive's sons.Biographers and psychologists have questioned whether at least some of NormaJeane's later behavior (i.e. hypersexuality,sleep disturbances, substance abuse, disturbed interpersonal relationships), was a manifestation of the effects of childhoodsexual abuse in the context of her already problematic relationships with herpsychiatrically ill mother and subsequent caregivers.In early 1938, Grace sent her tolive with yet another one of her aunts,Ana Lower, who lived in the Van Nuyssection of Los Angeles. The time with Lower provided the young Norma Jeanewith one of the few stable periods in her life.Years later, she would reflectfondly about the time that she spent with Lower,whom she affectionately called "Aunt Ana".By 1942, the elderly Lower developedserious health problems, and thusNorma Jeane went back to live with the Goddards.It was there where she met a neighbor's son,James Dougherty, and began arelationship with him.

Her time with the Goddards would once againprove to be short. At the end of1942, Grace and Doc decided torelocate to Virginia, where Doc had received a lucrative job offer. The Goddards decided not to take Norma Jeane withthem (the reasoning why was never made clear); thus Grace needed to find a homefor her before they moved. An offerfrom a neighborhood family to adopt Norma Jeane was proposed but Gladys stillwould not allow it. With few optionsleft, Grace approached Dougherty'smother and suggested that Jim marry her so that she would not have to return toan orphanage or foster care.Dougherty was initially reluctant because Norma Jeane was only sixteen yearsold, but he finally relented andmarried her in a ceremony, arrangedby Ana Lower, after graduating fromhigh school in June 1942. Monroe would state in herautobiography that she did not feel like a wife; she enjoyed playing with theneighborhood children until her husband would call her home. In 1943,with World War II raging, Doughertyenlisted in the Merchant Marine and was shipped out to the Pacific. Frightened that he might not come back alive, Norma Jeane begged him to try and get her pregnantbefore he left. Dougherty disagreed, feeling that she was too young to have a baby, but he promised that they would revisit the subjectwhen he returned home. After heshipped out, Norma Jeane moved inwith Dougherty's mother.

While Dougherty was in the Merchant Marine, Norma Jeane found employment in the RadioplaneMunitions Factory. She sprayedairplane parts with fire retardant and inspected parachutes. During this time,Army photographer David Conover snapped a photograph of her for a Yankmagazine article. He encouraged herto apply to The Blue Book Modeling Agency.She signed with the agency and began researching the work of Jean Harlow andLana Turner. She was told that theywere looking for models with lighter hair,so Norma Jeane bleached her brunette hair to a golden blonde.

Norma Jeane Dougherty became one of BlueBook's most successful models,appearing on dozens of magazine covers.Jim Dougherty was oblivious of his wife's new job and only became aware of itwhen he discovered a shipmate of his admiring a photo of a sexy model in amagazine who turned out to be Norma Jeane.Dougherty wrote her several letters telling her that once he returned fromservice, she would have to give upher modeling. A dissatisfied NormaJeane, who now saw the possibilitiesof a modeling and acting career,decided then to divorce Dougherty.The marriage ended when he returned from overseas in 1946.

Her successful modeling career brought her tothe attention of Ben Lyon, a 20thCentury Fox executive, who arrangeda screen test for her. Lyon was impressed and commented,"It's Jean Harlow all over again."She was offered a standard six-month contract with a starting salary of $125per week. Lyondid not like her name and chose "Carole Lind" as a stagename, after Carole Lombard and Jenny Lind, but he soon decided it was not an appropriatechoice. Norma Jeane was invited tospend the weekend with Lyon and his wife BebeDaniels at their home. It was therethat they decided to find her a new name.Following her idol Jean Harlow,Norma Jeane decided to choose her mother's maiden name of Monroe.Several variations such as Norma Jeane Monroe and Norma Monroe were tried andinitially "Jeane Monroe" was chosen.Eventually Lyon decided that he wanted her tohave a new name as there were many actresses with the name Jean, or a variation of it such as Jean Peters, Gene Tierney,Jeanne Crain, and Jean Arthur. Wanting a more alliterative sounding name, Lyon suggested"Marilyn", commenting thatshe reminded him of Marilyn Miller,the sexy 1920's Broadway actress.Norma Jeane was initially hesitant because Marilyn was the contraction of thename Mary Lynn, a name she did notlike. Lyon, however,felt that the name "Marilyn Monroe" was sexy,had a "nice flow", andwould be "lucky" due to the double "M"[20] andthus Norma Jeane Baker took the name Marilyn Monroe.After she changed her name, thenewly named Marilyn Monroe dyed her dark brown hair blonde. The Internet Movie Database lists Marylin Monroein an uncredited role as a telephone operator in "The Shocking MissPilgrim" in 1947.[21]She had brief roles in Scudda Hoo! Scudda Hay! and Dangerous Years(both 1947), but when her contractwas not renewed, she returned tomodeling. She attempted to findopportunities for film work, andwhile unemployed, she posed for nudephotographs. That year, she was also crowned the first "MissCalifornia Artichoke Queen" at the annual artichoke festival inCastroville.

In 1948,Monroe signed asix-month contract with Columbia Pictures and was introduced to the studio'shead drama coach Natasha Lytess, whobecame her acting coach for several years.[23]She starred in the low-budget musical Ladies of the Chorus. Monroe wascapitalized as one of the film's bright spots,but the movie didn't bring any success for Columbiaor for Marilyn.[24]During her short stint at Columbia, studio head Harry Cohn softened her appearancesomewhat by correcting a slight overbite she had.

She had a small role in the Marx Brothersfilm Love Happy (1949). Sheimpressed the producers, who senther to New York to feature in the film'spromotional campaign.[25]Love Happy brought Monroeto the attention of the talent agent,Johnny Hyde, who agreed to representher. He arranged for her to auditionfor John Huston, who cast her in thedrama The Asphalt Jungle as the young mistress of an aging criminal. Her performance brought strong reviews,[25] and was seen by the writer anddirector, Joseph Mankiewicz. He accepted Hyde's suggestion of Monroe for a small comedic role in AllAbout Eve as Miss Caswell, anaspiring actress, described byanother character as a student of "The Copacabana School of DramaticArt". Mankiewicz latercommented that he had seen an innocence in her that he found appealing, and that this had confirmed his belief in hersuitability for the role.[26]Following Monroe's success in these roles,Hyde negotiated a seven-year contract for her with 20th Century Fox, shortly before his death in December 1950. It was at some time during this 1949–50 periodthat Hyde arranged for her to have a slight bump of cartilage removed from hersomewhat bulbous nose which further softened her appearance and accounts for theslight variation in look she had in films after 1950.

Monroe enrolled at UCLA in 1951 where she studied literatureand art appreciation, and appearedin several minor films playing opposite such long-established performers asMickey Rooney, Constance Bennett, June Allyson,Dick Powell and Claudette Colbert.InMarch 1951, she appeared as apresenter at the 23rd Academy Awards ceremony.

In 1952,Monroe appearedon the cover of Look magazine wearing a Georgia Tech sweater as part ofan article celebrating female enrollment to the school's main campus.

In the early 1950s,Monroe and Gregg Palmer both unsuccessfully auditioned for roles as Daisy Maeand Abner in a proposed Li'l Abner television series based on the AlCapp comic strip, but the effortnever materialized.

In March 1952,Monroe faced apossible scandal when one of her nude photos from a 1949 session withphotographer Tom Kelley was featured in a calendar.The press speculated about the identity of the anonymous model and commentedthat she closely resembled Monroe. As the studio discussed how to deal with theproblem, Monroe suggested that sheshould simply admit that she had posed for the photograph but that she shouldemphasize that she had done so only because she had no money to pay her rent.[32] She gave an interview in which shediscussed the circumstances that led to her posing for the photographs, and the resulting publicity elicited a degree ofsympathy for her plight as a struggling actress.

She made her first appearance on the cover ofLife magazine in April 1952,where she was described as "The Talk of Hollywood".[33]True Experiences JoeDiMaggio. A photograph of DiMaggiovisiting Monroe at the 20th Century Fox studio was printed in newspapersthroughout the United States, andreports of a developing romance between them generated further interest inMonroe. Stories of her childhood andupbringing portrayed her in a sympathetic light: a cover story for the May 1952edition of magazine showed a smiling and wholesome Monroe beside a caption that read, "Do I look happy? I should— for I was achild nobody wanted. A lonely girlwith a dream— who awakened to find that dream come true. I am Marilyn Monroe.Read my Cinderella story." Itwas also during this time that she began dating baseball player

Over the following months, four films in which Monroe featured were released. She had been lent to RKO Studios to appear in asupporting role in Clash by Night,a Barbara Stanwyck drama, directedby Fritz Lang.[36]Released in June 1952, the film was popularwith audiences, with much of itssuccess credited to curiosity about Monroe, who received generally favorable reviews fromcritics.

This was followed by two films released inJuly, the comedy We're NotMarried, and the drama Don'tBother to Knock. We're NotMarriedVariety described the film as "lightweight". Its reviewer commented that Monroe was featured tofull advantage in a bathing suit,and that some of her scenes suggested a degree of exploitation.[38] In Don't Bother to Knock sheplayed the starring role[39] of a babysitter who threatens to attackthe child in her care. The downbeatmelodrama was poorly reviewed,although Monroe commented that it contained some of her strongest dramaticacting.[39] MonkeyBusiness, a comedy directed byHoward Hawks starring Cary Grant and Ginger Rogers,was released in September. Thismovie was a huge success. This wasthe first movie Marilyn appeared in with platinum blonde hair. [40] In O.Henry's Full House for 20th Century Fox,released in August 1952, Monroe hada single one-minute scene with Charles Laughton yet received top billingalongside him and the film's other stars,including Anne Baxter, FarleyGranger, Jean Peters and RichardWidmark. featured Monroe as a beauty pageant contestant.

Darryl F.Zanuck considered that Monroe's film potential was worth developing and casther in Niagara, as a femmefatale scheming to murder her husband,played by Joseph Cotten.[41]During filming, Monroe's make-upartist Whitey Snyder noticed her stage fright (that would ultimately mark herbehavior on film sets throughout her career); the director assigned him tospend hours gently coaxing and comforting Monroe as she prepared to film herscenes. Much of the criticalcommentary following the release of the film focused on Monroe's overtly sexualperformance,[41] and ascene which shows Monroe (from the back) making a long walk toward NiagaraFalls[43] After seeing the film,Constance Bennett reportedly quipped,"There's a broad with her future behind her."[44]Whitey Snyder also commented that it was during preparation for this film, after much experimentation,that Monroeachieved "the look, and we usedthat look for several pictures in a row ... thelook was established." receivedfrequent note in reviews.

While the film was a success, and Monroe'sperformance had positive reviews,her conduct at promotional events sometimes drew negative comments. Her appearance at the Photoplay awardsdinner in a skin-tight gold lamé dress was criticized.Louella Parsons' newspaper column quoted Joan Crawford discussing Monroe's"vulgarity" and describing her behavior as "unbecoming anactress and a lady".[45]Monroe had previously received criticism for wearing a dress with a necklinecut almost to her navel when she acted as Grand Marshall at the Miss AmericaParade in September 1952.[46]A photograph from this event was used on the cover of the first issue of Playboyin December 1953, with a nudephotograph of Monroe, taken in 1949, inside the magazine.

Her next film was Gentlemen Prefer Blondes(1953) co-starring Jane Russell and directed by Howard Hawks. Her role as Lorelei Lee,a gold-digging showgirl, requiredher to act, sing, and dance.The two stars became friends, withRussell describing Monroe as "very shy and very sweet and far moreintelligent than people gave her credit for".[48]She later recalled that Monroe showed her dedication by rehearsing her danceroutines each evening after most of the crew had left,but she arrived habitually late on set for filming.Realizing that Monroeremained in her dressing room due to stage fright,and that Hawks was growing impatient with her tardiness,Russell started escorting her to the set.

At the Los Angeles premiere of the film,Monroe and Russell pressed their hand- and footprints in the cement in theforecourt of Grauman's Chinese Theatre.Monroe received positive reviews and the film grossed more than double itsproduction costs.[50] Herrendition of "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" became associatedwith her. Gentlemen Prefer Blondesalso marked one of the earliest films in which William Travilla dressed Monroe. Travilla dressed Monroein eight of her films including Bus Stop,Don't Bother to Knock, Howto Marry a Millionaire, River of No Return,There’s No Business Like Show Business,Monkey Business, and TheSeven Year Itch.

How to Marry a Millionaire was a comedy about three models scheming to attract awealthy husband. The film teamed Monroe with Betty Grableand Lauren Bacall, and was directedby Jean Negulesco.[52]The producer and scriptwriter,Nunnally Johnson, said that it wasthe first film in which audiences "liked Marilyn for herself [and that]she diagnosed the reason very shrewdly.She said that it was the only picture she'd been in,in which she had a measure of modesty... abouther own attractiveness."

Monroe's films of this period established her "dumbblonde" persona and contributed to her popularity.In 1953 and 1954, she was listed inthe annual "Quigley Poll of the Top Ten Money Making Stars", which was compiled from the votes of movieexhibitors throughout the United States for the stars that had generated themost revenue in their theaters over the previous year.During this time, Monroe discussed her acting ambitions, telling the New York Times "I want togrow and develop and play serious dramatic parts.My dramatic coach, Natasha Lytess, tells everybody that I have a great soul, but so far nobody's interested in it."[55] She saw a possibility in 20thCentury Fox's upcoming film, TheEgyptian, but was rebuffed byDarryl F. Zanuck who refused toscreen test her.

Instead,she was assigned to the western River of No Return,opposite Robert Mitchum. DirectorOtto Preminger resented Monroe's reliance onNatasha Lytess, who coached Monroe and announced herverdict at the end of each scene.Eventually Monroerefused to speak to Preminger, andMitchum had to mediate.[57]Of the finished product, shecommented, "I think I deserve abetter deal than a grade Z cowboy movie in which the acting finished second tothe scenery and the CinemaScope process."[58]In late 1953 Monroewas scheduled to begin filming The Girl in Pink Tights with FrankSinatra. When she failed to appearfor work, 20th Century Fox suspendedher.

She and Joe DiMaggio were married in San Francisco on January14, 1954.They travelled to Japan soon after,combining a honeymoon with a business trip previously arranged by DiMaggio. For two weeks she took a secondary role toDiMaggio as he conducted his business,telling a reporter, "Marriageis my main career from now on."[60]Monroe then travelled alone to Korea where sheperformed for 13,000 AmericanMarines over a three-day period. Shelater commented that the experience had helped her overcome a fear ofperforming in front of large crowds.

Returning to Hollywoodin March 1954, Monroe settled her disagreement with 20thCentury Fox and appeared in the musical There's No Business Like ShowBusiness. The film failed torecover its production costs[58] and was poorly received. Ed Sullivan described Monroe's performance of thesong "Heat Wave" as "one of the most Flagrant violations of goodtaste" he had witnessed.[62]Time magazine compared her unfavorably to co-star Ethel Merman, while Bosley Crowther for The New York Times saidthat Mitzi Gaynor had surpassed Monroe's "embarrassing to behold"performance.[63] Thereviews echoed Monroe's opinion of the film.She had made it reluctantly, on theassurance that she would be given the starring role in the film adaptation ofthe Broadway hit The Seven Year Itch September 1954, Monroe filmed oneof the key scenes for The Seven Year Itch in New York City.In it, she stands with her co-star, Tom Ewell,while the air from a subway grating blows her skirt up.A large crowd watched as director Billy Wilder ordered the scene to be refilmedmany times. Among the crowd was JoeDiMaggio, who was reported to havebeen infuriated by the spectacle.[65]After a quarrel, witnessed byjournalist Walter Winchell, thecouple returned to California where they avoided the press for two weeks, until Monroe announced that they had separated.[66] Their divorce was granted inNovember 1954.[67] Thefilming was completed in early 1955,and after refusing what she considered to be inferior parts in The Girl inthe Red Velvet Swing and How to Be Very,Very Popular, Monroe decided toleave Hollywood on the advice of Milton Greene.

Milton Greene had first met Monroe in 1953 when he was assigned tophotograph her for Look magazine.While many photographers tried to emphasize her sexy image, Greene presented her in more modest poses, and she was pleased with his work. As a friendship developed between them, she confided in him her frustration with her 20thCentury Fox contract and the roles she was offered.Her salary for Gentlemen Prefer Blondes amounted to $18,000,while freelancer Jane Russell was paid more than $100,000.[68] Greene agreed that she could earnmore by breaking away from 20th Century Fox.He gave up his job in 1954,mortgaged his home to finance Monroe, and allowed her to live with his family as theydetermined the future course of her career.

On April 8,1955, veteran journalist Edward R. Murrow interviewed Greene and his wife Amy, as well as Monroe,at the Greene's home in Connecticuton a live telecast of the CBS program Person to Person. The kinescope of the telecast has been released onhome video.

Truman Capote introduced Monroe to Constance Collier, who gave her acting lessons.She felt that Monroewas not suited to stage acting, butpossessed a "lovely talent" that was "so fragile and subtle, it can only be caught by the camera". After only a few weeks of lessons, Collier died.[71]Monroe had metPaula Strasberg and her daughter Susan on the set of There's No BusinessLike Show Business,[72]and had previously said that she would like to study with Lee Strasberg at theActors Studio. In March 1955, Monroemet with Cheryl Crawford, one of thefounders of the Actors Studio, andconvinced her to introduce her to Lee Strasberg,who interviewed her the following day and agreed to accept her as a student.

In May 1955,Monroe started dating playwright Arthur Miller;they had met in Hollywood in 1950 and whenMiller discovered she was in New York, he arranged for a mutual friend to reintroducethem.[74] On June 1, 1955, Monroe's birthday,Joe DiMaggio accompanied Monroe to the premiereof The Seven Year Itch in New York City.He later hosted a birthday party for her,but the evening ended with a public quarrel,and Monroe leftthe party without him. A lengthyperiod of estrangement followed.

Throughout 1955,Monroe studiedwith the Actors Studio, and foundthat one of her biggest obstacles was her severe stage fright. She was befriended by the actors Kevin McCarthyand Eli Wallach who each recalled her as studious and sincere in her approachto her studies, and noted that shetried to avoid attention by sitting quietly in the back of the class.[77] When Strasberg felt Monroe wasready to give a performance in front of her peers,Monroe and Maureen Stapleton chose the opening scene from Eugene O'Neill's AnnaChristie, and although she hadfaltered during each rehearsal, shewas able to complete the performance without forgetting her lines.[78] Kim Stanley later recalled thatstudents were discouraged from applauding,but that Monroe's performance had resulted in spontaneous applause from theaudience.[78] WhileMonroe was a student, Lee Strasbergcommented, "I have worked withhundreds and hundreds of actors and actresses,and there are only two that stand out way above the rest.Number one is Marlon Brando, and thesecond is Marilyn Monroe."

The Seven Year Itch was released and became a success, earning an estimated $8 million.[79] Monroe received positive reviewsfor her performance and was in a strong position to negotiate with 20th CenturyFox.[79] On New Year'sEve 1955, they signed a new contractwhich required Monroe to make four films over a seven-year period. The newly formed Marilyn Monroe Productions wouldbe paid $100,000 plus a share ofprofits for each film. In additionto being able to work for other studios,Monroe had theright to reject any script, directoror cinematographer she did not approve of.

The first film to be made under the contractand production company was Bus Stop directed by Joshua Logan. Logan had studied under Konstantin Stanislavsky, approved of method acting,and was supportive of Monroe.[82]Monroe severed contact with her drama coach,Natasha Lytess, replacing her withPaula Strasberg, who became aconstant presence during the filming of Monroe's subsequent films.

In Bus Stop,Monroe playedChérie, a saloon singer with littletalent who falls in love with a cowboy.Her costumes, make-up and hairreflected a character who lacked sophistication,and Monroeprovided deliberately mediocre singing and dancing.Bosley Crowther of The New York Times proclaimed: "Hold on to yourchairs, everybody, and get set for a rattling surprise. Marilyn Monroe has finally proved herself anactress." In his autobiography, Movie Stars,Real People and Me, directorLogan wrote: "I found Marilyn to be one of the great talents of all time... she struck me as being a much brighter person thanI had ever imagined, and I thinkthat was the first time I learned that intelligence and,yes, brilliance have nothing to dowith education." Logan championed Monroefor an Academy Award[84] Though not nominated for an Academy Award,[85] she received a Golden Globenomination. nomination andcomplimented her professionalism until the end of his life.

During this time,the relationship between Monroe and Miller had developed,and although the couple were able to maintain their privacy for almost a year, the press began to write about them as a couple,[86] often referred to as "TheEgghead and The Hourglass".[87]The reports of their romance were soon overtaken by news that Miller had beencalled to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee to explainhis supposed communist affiliations.Called upon to identify communists he was acquainted with,Miller refused and was charged with contempt of Congress.He was acquitted on appeal.[88]During the investigation, Monroe was urged by filmexecutives to abandon Miller, ratherthan risk her career but she refused,later branding them as "born cowards".[88]The press began to discuss an impending marriage,but Monroe and Miller refused to confirm the rumor.In June 1956, a reporter wasfollowing them by car, and as theyattempted to elude him, thereporter's car crashed, killing afemale passenger. Monroe became hysterical upon hearing thenews, and their engagement wasannounced, partly in the expectationthat it would reduce the excessive media interest they were being subjected to.[87] They were married on June 29, 1956.

Bus Stop was followed by The Prince and the Showgirl directed byLaurence Olivier, who alsoco-starred. Prior to filming, Olivier praised Monroe as "a brilliant comedienne, which to me means she is also an extremely skilledactress". During filming in England he resented Monroe's dependence on her drama coach, Paula Strasberg,regarding Strasberg as a fraud whose only talent was the ability to"butter Marilyn up". Herecalled his attempts at explaining a scene to Monroe,only to hear Strasberg interject,"Honey— just think of Coca-ColaFrank Sinatra."and

Despite Monroe and Olivier clashing, Olivier later commented that in the film"Marilyn was quite wonderful,the best of all."[90]Monroe's performance was hailed by critics, especially in Europe, where she won the David di Donatello, the Italian equivalent of the Academy Award, as well as the French Crystal Star Award. She was also nominated for a BAFTA.

It was more than a year before Monroe began her nextfilm. During her hiatus, she summered with Miller in Amagansett, Long Island. She suffered a miscarriage on August 1, 1957.With Miller's encouragement she returned to Hollywood in August 1958 to star in SomeLike it Hot. The film wasdirected by Billy Wilder and co-starred Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis. Wilder had experienced Monroe's tardiness,stage fright, and inability toremember lines during production of The Seven Year Itch. However her behavior was now more hostile, and was marked by refusals to participate infilming and occasional outbursts of profanity.[93]Monroe consistently refused to take direction from Wilder,or insisted on numerous retakes of simple scenes until she was satisfied.[94] She developed a rapport with Lemmon, but she disliked Curtis after hearing that he haddescribed their love scenes as "like kissing Hitler".[95] Curtis later stated that thecomment was intended as a joke.[96]During filming, Monroe discoveredthat she was pregnant. She sufferedanother miscarriage in December 1958,as filming was completed.

Some Like it Hot became a resounding success,and was nominated for six Academy Awards.Monroe was acclaimedfor her performance and won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress - MotionPicture Musical or Comedy. Wildercommented that the film was the biggest success he had ever been associatedwith.[98] He discussedthe problems he encountered during filming,saying "Marilyn was so difficult because she was totally unpredictable. I never knew what kind of day we were going tohave... would she be cooperative or obstructive?"[99]He had little patience with her method-acting technique and said that insteadof going to the Actors Studio "she should have gone to a train-engineer'sschool ... to learn something about arriving on schedule."[100] Wilder had become ill duringfilming, and explained, "We were in mid-flight– and there was anut on the plane."[101]In hindsight, he discussed Monroe's "certainindefinable magic" and "absolute genius as a comic actress."

By this time,Monroe had onlycompleted one film, Bus Stop, under her four-picture contract with 20th CenturyFox. She agreed to appear in Let'sMake Love, which was to bedirected by George Cukor, but shewas not satisfied with the script,and Arthur Miller rewrote it.[102]Gregory Peck was originally cast in the male lead role,but he refused the role after Miller's rewrite; Cary Grant, Charlton Heston,Yul Brynner and Rock Hudson also refused the role before it was offered to YvesMontand.[103] Monroe andMiller befriended Montand and his wife,actress Simone Signoret, and filmingprogressed well until Miller was required to travel to Europe on business. Monroebegan to leave the film set early and on several occasions failed to attend, but her attitude improved after Montand confrontedher. Signoret returned to Europe to make a film,and Monroe and Montand began a brief affair that ended when Montand refused toleave Signoret.[104] Thefilm was not a critical or commercial success.

Monroe's health deteriorated during this period, and she began to see a Los Angeles psychiatrist, Dr.Ralph Greenson. He later recalledthat during this time she frequently complained of insomnia, and told Greenson that she visited several medicaldoctors to obtain what Greenson considered an excessive variety of drugs. He concluded that she was progressing to the pointof addiction, but also noted thatshe could give up the drugs for extended periods without suffering anywithdrawal symptoms.[106]According to Greenson, the marriagebetween Miller and Monroe was strained; he said that Miller appeared togenuinely care for Monroe and was willing to help her,but that Monroe rebuffed while also expressing resentment towards him for notdoing more to help her.[107]Greenson stated that his main objective at the time was to enforce a drasticreduction in Monroe's drug intake.

In 1956 Arthur Miller had lived briefly in Nevada and wrote a shortstory about some of the local people he had become acquainted with, a divorced woman and some aging cowboys. By 1960 he had developed the short story into ascreenplay, and envisaged it ascontaining a suitable role for Monroe. It became her last completed film. The Misfits,directed by John Huston and costarring Clark Gable,Montgomery Clift, Eli Wallach andThelma Ritter. Shooting commenced inJuly 1960, with most taking place inthe hot Northern Nevada[109] Monroe was frequently ill and unable toperform, and away from the influenceof Dr. Greenson, she had resumed her consumption of sleeping pillsand alcohol.[108] Avisitor to the set, Susan Strasberg, later described Monroe as "mortally injuredin some way,"[110]and in August, Monroe was rushed toLos Angeles where she was hospitalized for ten days.Newspapers reported that she had been near death,although the nature of her illness was not disclosed.[111]Louella Parsons wrote in her newspaper column that Monroe was "a very sick girl, much sicker than at first believed", and disclosed that she was being treated by apsychiatrist. desert.

Monroe returned to Nevada and completed thefilm, but she became hostile towardsArthur Miller, and public argumentswere reported by the press.[112]Making the film had proved to be an arduous experience for the actors; inaddition to Monroe's distress,Montgomery Clift had frequently been unable to perform due to illness, and by the final day of shooting, Thelma Ritter was in hospital suffering from exhaustion. Gable,commenting that he felt unwell, leftthe set without attending the wrap party.[113]Monroe and Miller returned to New York on separate flights.

Within ten days Monroehad announced her separation from Miller,and Gable had died from a heart attack.[115]Gable's widow, Kay, commented to Louella Parsons that it had been the"eternal waiting" on the set of The Misfits that hadcontributed to his death, though shedid not name Monroe. When reporters asked Monroe if she felt guiltyabout Gable's death, she refused toanswer,[116] but thejournalist Sidney Skolsky recalled that privately she expressed regret for herpoor treatment of Gable during filming and described her as being in "adark pit of despair".[117]Monroe later attended the christening of the Gables' son,at the invitation of Kay Gable.

The Misfits received mediocre reviews,and was not a commercial success,though some praised the performances of Monroeand Gable.[117] Hustonlater commented that Monroe'sperformance was not acting in the true sense,and that she had drawn from her own experiences to show herself, rather than a character."She had no techniques. It wasall the truth. It was only Marilyn."

During the following months, Monroe's dependence on alcohol and prescriptionmedications began to take a toll on her health,and friends such as Susan Strasberg later spoke of her illness.[118] Her divorce from Arthur Miller wasfinalized in January 1961, withMonroe citing "incompatibility of character",[118]and in February she voluntarily entered the Payne Whitney Psychiatric Clinic. Monroe laterdescribed the experience as a "nightmare".[119]She was able to phone Joe DiMaggio from the clinic,and he immediately traveled from Florida to New York to facilitate her transfer to the Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center. She remained there for three weeks. Illness prevented her from working for theremainder of the year; she underwent surgery to correct a blockage in herFallopian tubes in May, and thefollowing month underwent gall bladder surgery.[120]She returned to Californiaand lived in a rented apartment as she convalesced.

In 1962 Monroebegan filming Something's Got to Give,which was to be the third film of her four-film contract with 20th Century Fox. It was to be directed by George Cukor, and co-starred Dean Martin and Cyd Charisse. She was ill with a virus as filming commenced, and suffered from high temperatures and recurrentsinusitis. On one occasion sherefused to perform with Martin as he had a cold,and the producer Henry Weinstein recalled seeing her on several occasions beingphysically ill as she prepared to film her scenes,and attributed it to her dread of performing.He commented, "Very few peopleexperience terror. We all experienceanxiety, unhappiness, heartbreaks,but that was sheer primal terror."

On May 19,1962, she attended the birthdaycelebration of President John F.Kennedy at Madison Square Garden, at the suggestion of Kennedy's brother-in-law, actor Peter Lawford.Monroeperformed "Happy Birthday" along with a specially written verse basedon Bob Hope's "Thanks for the Memory".Kennedy responded to her performance with the remark,"Thank you. I can now retirefrom politics after having had 'Happy Birthday' sung to me in such a sweet, wholesome way."

Monroe returned to the set of Something's Got to Giveand filmed a sequence in which she appeared nude in a swimming pool. Commenting that she wanted to "push LizTaylor off the magazine covers",she gave permission for several partially nude photographs to be published by Life. Having only reported for work on twelve occasionsout of a total of 35 days of production,[121]Monroe wasdismissed. The studio 20th CenturyFox filed a lawsuit against her for half a million dollars,[123] and the studio's vice president, Peter Levathes,issued a statement saying "The star system has gotten way out of hand. We've let the inmates run the asylum, and they've practically destroyed it."[123] Monroe was replaced by Lee Remick, and when Dean Martin refused to work with any otheractress, he was also threatened witha lawsuit.

Following her dismissal,Monroe engagedin several high-profile publicity ventures.She gave an interview to Cosmopolitan and was photographed at PeterLawford's beach house sipping champagne and walking on the beach.[124] She next posed for Bert Stern for Voguein a series of photographs that included several nudes.[124]Published after her death, theybecame known as 'The Last Sitting'.Richard Meryman interviewed her for Life,in which Monroereflected upon her relationship with her fans and her uncertainties inidentifying herself as a "star" and a "sex symbol". She referred to the events surrounding ArthurMiller's appearance before the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1956, and her studio's warning that she would be"finished" if she showed public support for him,and commented, "You have tostart all over again. But I believeyou're always as good as your potential.I now live in my work and in a few relationships with the few people I can reallycount on. Fame will go by, and, solong, I've had you fame. If it goes by,I've always known it was fickle. Soat least it's something I experienced,but that's not where I live."

In the final weeks of her life, Monroeengaged in discussions about future film projects,and firm arrangements were made to continue negotiations.[126]Among the projects was a biography of Jean Harlow later filmed unsuccessfullywith Carroll Baker. Starring rolesin Billy Wilder's Irma La Douce[127] and What a Way to Go!were also discussed; Shirley MacLaine eventually played the roles in both films. Kim Novak replaced her in Kiss Me, Stupid,a comedy in which she was to star opposite Dean Martin.A film version of the Broadway musical,A Tree Grows In Brooklyn, andan unnamed World War I–themed musical co-starring Gene Kelly were alsodiscussed, but the projects did notoccur.[126] Her disputewith 20th Century Fox was resolved,and her contract renewed into a $1 million two-picture deal, and filming of Something's Got to Give wasscheduled to resume in early fall 1962.Also on the table was an Italian film offer worth several million giving herscript, director and co-starapproval.[128] Allan"Whitey" Snyder who saw her during the last week of her life, said Monroe was pleased by the opportunitiesavailable to her, and that she"never looked better [and] was in great spirits"

On August 5,1962, LAPD police sergeant JackClemmons received a call at 4:25 a.m. from Dr.Ralph Greenson, Monroe'spsychiatrist, proclaiming that Monroe was found dead at her home in Brentwood, Los Angeles,California.[129] She was36 years old. At the subsequentautopsy, eight milligram percent ofChloral Hydrate and 4.5 milligrampercent of Nembutal were found in her system,[130]ThomasNoguchi of the Los Angeles County Coroners office recorded cause of death as"acute barbiturate poisoning",resulting from a "probable suicide".[131]Many theories, including murder, circulated about the circumstances of her deathand the timeline after the body was found.Some conspiracy theories involved John and Robert Kennedy,while other theories suggested CIA or Mafia and Dr.complicity. It was reported that thelast person Marilyn called was The President.

On August 8,1962, Monroewas interred in a crypt at Corridor of Memories #24,at the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery in Westwood, Los Angeles.Lee Strasberg delivered the eulogy.The crypt space immediately to the left of Monroe's was bought and reserved by HughHefner in 1992.

In August 2009,the crypt space directly above that of Monroewas placed for sale on .Elsie Poncher plans to exhume her husband and move him to an adjacent plot. She advertised the crypt,hoping "to make enough money to pay off the $1.6million mortgage" on her Beverly Hills mansion.The winning offer was placed by an anonymous Japanese man for $4.6 million,but the winning buyer later backed out "because of the payingproblem". In her will, Monroeleft Lee Strasberg her personal effects,which amounted to just over half of her residuary estate,expressing her desire that he "distribute [the effects] among my friends, colleagues and those to whom I am devoted". Instead,Strasberg stored them in a warehouse,and willed them to his widow, Anna. Mrs.Strasberg successfully sued Los Angeles-based Odyssey sales in 1994 toprevent the sale of items consigned by the nephew of Monroe's business manager, Inez Melson.In October 1999, Christie'ssaleed the bulk of Monroe'seffects, including those recoveredfrom Melson's nephew, netting US $13,405,785.

Mrs.Strasberg then sued the children of four photographers to determine rights ofpublicity, which permits thelicensing of images of deceased personages for commercial purposes. The decision as to whether Monroewas a resident of California, where she died and where her will was probated, or New York,which she considered her primary residence,was worth millions.

On 4 May 2007,a New York judge ruled that Monroe's rights of publicity ended at herdeath. In October 2007, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed Senate Bill771. The legislation was supportedby Anna Strasberg and the Screen Actors Guild,and established that non-family members may inherit rights of publicity throughthe residuary clause of the deceased's will,provided that the person was a resident of California at the time of death.

In March 2008,the United States District Court in Los Angelesruled that Monroe was a resident of New York at the time of her death,citing the statement of the executor of her estate to California tax authorities, and a 1966 sworn affidavit by her housekeeper. The decision was reaffirmed by the United StatesDistrict Court of New York in September 2008.In 2010, Monroe'sBrentwood home was put up for sale byPrudential California Realty.

Monroe had three marriages,first to James Dougherty, then toJoe DiMaggio, and lastly ArthurMiller. Monroe is alleged to have had affairs withthe both Kennedy brothers. MarlonBrando, in his autobiography SongsMy Mother Taught Me, alsoclaimed that he had had a relationship with her.

Monroe married James Dougherty on June 19, 1942,at the home of Chester Howell in Los Angeles. InThe Secret Happiness of Marilyn Monroe and To Norma Jeane with Love, Jimmie,he claimed they were in love, butdreams of stardom lured her away. In1953, he wrote a piece called"Marilyn Monroe Was My Wife" for Photoplay, in which he claimed that she threatened to jumpoff the Santa Monica Pier if he left her.In the 2004 documentary Marilyn's Man,Dougherty made three new claims: that he invented the "MarilynMonroe" persona; studio executives forced her to divorce him; and that hewas her true love and her "dedicated friend for life".

In 1951,Joe DiMaggio saw a picture of Monroewith Chicago White Sox players Joe Dobson and Gus Zernial,but did not ask the man who arranged the stunt to set up a date until 1952. Monroewrote in My Story that she did not want to meet him, fearing a stereotypical jock.They eloped at San Francisco City Hall on January 14, 1954.During their honeymoon in Japan, she was asked to visit Korea as part of the USO. She performed ten shows in four days for over 100,000 servicemen.

Maury Allen quoted New York Yankees PR manArthur Richman that Joe told him that the marriage went wrong from then. On September 14,1954, Monroefilmed the famed skirt-blowing scene for The Seven Year Itch in front ofNew York'sTrans-Lux Theater. Bill Kobrin, then Fox's east coast correspondent, told the Palm Springs Desert Sun in 1956that it was Billy Wilder's idea to turn the shoot into a media circus, and that the couple had a "yellingbattle" in the theater lobby.[150]She filed for divorce on grounds of mental cruelty 274 days after the wedding.

In February 1961,Monroe wasadmitted to the Payne Whitney Psychiatric Clinic.She contacted DiMaggio, who securedher release. She later joined him inFlorida, where he was serving as a batting coach at the NewYork Yankees' training camp. BobHope jokingly dedicated Best Song nominee The Second Time Around to themat the 1961 Academy Awards.

According to Allen,on August 1, 1962, DiMaggio– alarmed by how Monroe had fallen in with people heconsidered detrimental to her well-being– quit his job with a PX supplierto ask her to remarry him.

After Monroe'sdeath, DiMaggio claimed her body andarranged her funeral. For 20 years, he had a half-dozen red roses delivered to hercrypt three times a week.

In 2006,DiMaggio's adopted granddaughters saleed the bulk of his estate, which featured two letters Monroe penned to him and a photograph signed"I love you, Joe, Marilyn."

On June 29,1956, Monroemarried playwright Arthur Miller,whom she first met in 1950, in acivil ceremony in White Plains, New York. City Court Judge Seymour D.Robinowitz presided over the hushed ceremony in the law office of Sam Slavitt(the wedding had been kept secret from both the press and the public). Monroe and Miller wed again two days later in aJewish ceremony before a small group of guests.Rabbi Robert E. Goldburg, a Reform rabbi at Congregation Mishkan Israel, presided over the ceremony.Their nuptials were celebrated at the home of Miller's literary agent, Kay Brown,in Westchester County, NY. Some 30 friends and relatives attended the hastilyarranged party. Less than two weeksafter the wedding, the Millers flewto London, where they were greeted at Parkside House byLaurence Olivier and wife Vivien Leigh.Monroe createdchaos among the normally staid British press.In reflecting on his courtship of Monroe, Miller wrote,"She was a whirling light to me then,all paradox and enticing mystery,street-tough one moment, then liftedby a lyrical and poetic sensitivity that few retain past early adolescence." Nominally raised as a Christian, she converted to Judaism before marrying Miller. After she finished shooting The Prince and theShowgirl with Laurence Olivier,the couple returned to the United Statesfrom Englandand discovered she was pregnant.Tony Curtis, her co-star from SomeLike It Hot, claims he got Monroe pregnant duringtheir on-off affair that was rekindled during the filming of Some Like ItHot in 1959, while she was stillmarried to Arthur Miller.

Miller's screenplay for The Misfits, a story about a despairing divorcée, was meant to be a Valentine gift for his wife, but by the time filming started in 1960 theirmarriage was beyond repair. AMexican divorce was granted on January 24,1961 in Ciudad Juarezby Francisco José Gómez Fraire. OnFebruary 17, 1962, Miller married Inge Morath,one of the Magnum photographers recording the making of The Misfits.

In January 1964,Miller's play After The Fall opened,featuring a beautiful and devouring shrew named Maggie.Simone Signoret noted in her autobiography the morofferity of Miller and EliaKazan resuming their professional association "over a casket". In interviews and in his autobiography, Miller insisted that Maggie was not based on Monroe. However,he never pretended that his last Broadway-bound work,Finishing the Picture, wasnot based on the making of The Misfits.He appeared in the documentary The Century of the Self, lamenting the psychological work being done on herbefore her death. Monroe made her last significant public appearance, singing "Happy Birthday,Mr. President" at a birthdayparty for President John F. Kennedyat Madison Square Garden. The dress that she wore to the event, specially designed and made for her by Jean Louis, sold at an sale in 1999 for USD $1.26 million.

Monroe did reportedly have an affair with President John F. Kennedy and his brother Senator Robert Kennedy. JFK's reputed mistress Judith Exner, in her 1977 autobiography,also wrote about an affair that she said the president and Monroe had.

Journalist Anthony Summers examines the issueof Monroe's relationships with the Kennedybrothers at length in two books: his 1993 biography of FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover,entitled Official and Confidential: The Secret Life of J. Edgar Hoover,and his 1985 biography of Monroe, entitled Goddess.In the Hoover book, Summersconcludes that Monroe was in love with President Kennedy and wanted to marryhim in the early 1960s; that she called the White House frequently; and that, when the married President had to break off theiraffair, Monroe became even moredepressed, and then turned to RobertKennedy, who visited Monroe in LosAngeles the day that she died.

Patricia Seaton Lawford,the fourth wife of actor Peter Lawford,also deals with the Monroe-Kennedy matters in her 1988 biography of PeterLawford, entitled The PeterLawford Story. Lawford's firstwife was Patricia Kennedy Lawford,the sister of John and Robert; Lawford was very close to the Kennedy family forover a decade, including the time ofMonroe's death.

Monroe had a long experience with psychoanalysis. She was in analysis with Margaret Herz Hohenberg, Anna Freud,Marianne Rie Kris, Ralph S. Greenson (who found Monroe dead),and Milton Wexler.
