  2. Marilyn’s Biography • Birth Name: Norma Jeane • Born: June 1, 1926 • Born in: Los Angeles, California • Religion: Jewish • Height: 5’ or 5’1/2 • Nickname: The Blonde Bombshell

  3. Marilyn’s Childhood Marilyn Monroe “Norma Jeane”, grew up without knowing her father, and her mother was mentally ill. Marilyn was abandoned to multiple foster homes. She was nearly smothered to death at two of them, and raped at 6 of them. Family friends of Marilyn's took her in for a few years, their names were Grace and Doc. Goddard. But unfortunately Doc’s job was transferred and they couldn’t afford to take Marilyn with them. So on June 19, 1942 at 16 years old, Marilyn saved her self from being at foster homes and married her boyfriend Jimmy Doughtery. He was later sent to the south pacific though so she went on to work in a factory..

  4. Discovery of Marilyn Monroe “Her rise to fame” 1994: She was Working in a parachute factory when she was discovered as the next new model. Her face then appeared on numerous magazine covers. (legend) 1946: Marilyn's rise to stardom began, She got a divorce, and a new name. She had changed her name from Norma Jeane to now Marilyn Monroe. She died her hair blonde and appeared in a number of movies (small roles). Her first film she appeared in was “Scubba – Hoo Scubba – Hay”. She also played the lead role in “Ladies of the chorus”.(legend)

  5. Joe DiMaggio & Marilyn Monroe 1954: Marilyn and Joe DiMaggio are married (legend). It was a well known marriage, but not a good one. Joe and Marilyn were completely different. He didn’t agree with Marilyn’s career. He was a conservative man and She wouldn’t give up her career for him (legend). When Marilyn’s Famous skirt blowing scene was released, Joe did not agree with it. They had gotten a divorce after 9 months of marriage. (legend) Joe DiMaggio: was an retired baseball player for the Yankees.

  6. Marilyn Monroe productions was created in 1956. Though only one film was produced (legend) The film The prince and the showgirl by Marilyn Monroe Productions was released in 1957 (legend) Marilyn had sang “happy birthday” on may of 1962 to president Kennedy at Madison Square Garden. (legend) Marilyn’s Achievements “through out her career” Marilyn had sung two songs: “every baby needs a da-da-daddy” & “anyone can see I love you” Her first leading role in a feature film was: Don’t bother to knock , which was released in 1952 Her best known song was: “Diamonds are a girls best friend” Marilyn Performed for the troops in Korea, One of her favorite moments in her life (legend).

  7. Death of Marilyn Monroe Some claim that Marilyn’s Death is unknown but others claim that at 36 years old, Marilyn Monroe was pronounced dead and was found with an empty bottle of sleeping pills by her bed (biography). “ Her humor, as attested to by the people who knew her, her compassion for all living things, her desire to be loved, her wish to have children All of these things are difficult to see in the glamorous woman we know as Marilyn Monroe. But she was human. Beneath it all, She was a little girl who hurt just like anyone else. Perhaps that is the most important lesson to be learned from her life and her death. Illusions are just that. We must always try to see the person beneath them” (biography).

  8. What makes Marilyn Monroe a hero? I believe Marilyn Monroe is a hero because of the troublesome childhood she went through and how she went on to be an amazing icon and role model for many young women. For Marilyn to have been abused and hurt through out her young days, she became one of the most kind hearted well known women in history. She had turned her life around from bad to good and always wore a smile. To see someone do that, is an inspiration and a hero to me and hopefully others. She also didn’t believe in looking like every other model. She loved the size she was and expressed it proudly. Though her death may be unknown and from what is said not so heroic, she still lived a heroic and inspiring life. Marilyn Monroe is a true icon and hero.

  9. Marilyn Monroe Quotes to use in paper “ I want to grow old without face lifts… I want to have the courage to be loyal to the face I have made” (biography). “ I’m not interested in money, I just want to be wonderful” (biography). “ If I’m a star, then people made me a star” (legend). “Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring” (Marilyn). “It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone.” (Marilyn)
