Marilyn Monroe was born Norma Jeane Mortenson in the charity ward 1 of a Los Angeles hospital in 1926. Her career as an actor and singer made her an icon 2 of the twentieth century. Her trademark 3 looks helped her become one of Hollywood’s greatest ever sex symbols. Her death in 1962 remains 4 a mystery; officially it was suicide but many say she was murdered.


Norma Jeane had a poor childhood and grew up in foster homes and orphanages 5. She married at 16 to escape life in government care but divorced four years later. In 1946, she joined a modelling agency and took singing and acting 6 lessons. She soon caught the eye of a Hollywood movie executive, who offered her a six-month acting contract.


Norma Jeane changed her name to Marilyn Monroe. She spent seven years taking on small roles and doing part-time modelling. In 1953, she starred in the film ‘Gentlemen Prefer Blondes’ and sang the legendary 7 ‘Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend’. She became a Hollywood sensation. All her movies were instant box office hits. She won a Golden Globe Award in 1959 for ‘Some Like It Hot’.


Monroe became an American superstar. She married baseball great Joe Di Maggio and then playwright 8 Arthur Miller 9. Many believe she was involved with President John F. Kennedy. Her last significant appearance was singing "Happy Birthday, Mr. President" at a televised birthday party for him in New York. Monroe’s looks and personality have inspired  generations of performers since her death.
