| Marilyn Monroe: The American OriginalThu, 08 Jan 2009 13:43:56 -0800 by AmericanOriginalsBeautiful black and white photograph montage in tribute to Norma Jeane aka Marilyn Monroe's career. Marilyn was born in Los Angeles, CA in 1926. She began her career as a Model in 1945. At the time of her death in 1962, she'd appeared in 30 films. She also owned her own production company, Marilyn Monroe Productions. She had plans to create her own perfume fragrance, and design clothing, in addition to both producing and starring in more films. Her tragic mysterious death robbed us of future contributions. Marilyn was an excellent dancer and singer/musician. She sang over a dozen hit songs in the 1950's. She was also a brilliant comedian. Marilyn lived in New York City for a while to study acting at the famous Actor's Studio. She had to fight for her rights in Hollywood, for higher pay, and for a contract that would permit her to pursue more serious acting roles. Ms. Monroe was the first actress in Hollywood to be given contractual freedom and control over her career, in the late 1950's. Marilyn Monroe was a self-made woman, from 'rags to riches'. Contrary to popular misconception, she was very intelligent and well read. She wrote poetry, and also painted, in her spare time. Marilyn Monroe was America's original beach beauty blonde. The Lioness archetype that has been emulated by many, in the decades that followed. She will always be remembered.
