Norma Jean Baker transformed herself into Marilyn Monroe. She started her career as a model in the 1940's while married to her first husband. She was a housewife turned model and decided to pursue acting after her husband gave her an ultimatum...our marriage or your career. She chose the latter. From then on out she worked hard to become the blond bombshell that made her an icon forever. Some of her films include Some Like it Hot, Bus Stop, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Niagara, and How to Marry a Millionaire. She was an easy target for jokes pointed her way and she was determined to demand respect. Marilyn was more than just a dumb blonde. Learn more about this fascinating woman that just wanted to be loved.
