Published: 2022 1953 Call Number: BLONDE Format: Video disc Summary: The extraordinary life of one of America's mots iconic entertainment sex symbols is explored with this extended box set of features and documentaries depicting different aspects of her complicated character and career. Marilyn Monroe was born Norma Jean Mortenson on June 1, 1926 and lived a brief but remarkable life of 36 years. She fought hard for the fame and recognition that she felt was deserved and then, when success was finally achieved, she was crushed beneath the wight of it. She was a true artist that is unfortunately remembered more for her iconic images and controversial alliances than her extraordinary acting and singing talents. Much has been written about Norma Jean by many who never knew her. She became world famous under the stage name of "Marilyn Monroe," but her on-screen appearances are in stark contrast to the love issues, exploitation, abuse of power, and drug addiction she faced in her private life. In the years since her death, after thirty movies, three marriages, the first Playboy edition cover shot, and singing to an American president, many books and films have been produced about her place in American pop culture.
