More DescriptionDuring her short life, Marilyn Monroe was globally revered as the sex symbol of the 1950s and 60s, and the originator of 'bombshell blonde' image.

The conversations gathered here - spanning her emergence on the scene to just days before her death at age 36 - show Monroe at her sharpest and most insightful on the thorny topics of ambition, fame, femininity, desire, and more.
