One of the most recognizable faces in history, Marilyn Monroe – born Norma Jeane Mortenson – overcame a difficult childhood to become one of the biggest stars on the planet, going on to feature in such legendary films as ‘Gentlemen Prefer Blondes’, and ‘Some Like It Hot’.
Monroe’s platinum blonde hair and carefree smile became an enduring archetype of America, and beneath them lay a wit and heart that charmed all who knew her. This photo is part of a previously unreleased 1962 photoshoot for Cosmopolitan.
