Katy brings us the beginning of Marilyn Monroe's, née Norma Jeane's, tumultuous and enchanting life. We hear about family back story that gives us a look into the events that shaped Norma Jeane's life and personality.

We want to do our best at telling her story in the most respectful manner, considering the way society has not always had respect for her, in her life and her death.
