If Marilyn were still alive today she would be celebrating her 80th birthday on June 1st, 2006. As the most famous actress of the 20th century, Marilyn Monroe symbolized characteristics that nearly every woman envied and every man desired. Monroe could appear breathtakingly beautiful, smolderingly sexy, eye-popping voluptuous and wildly innocent all in the same photograph. In 1999, 37 years after her death, Monroe was voted the “Sexiest Woman of the Century” award by People Magazine. Without question, Hollywood’s golden years of the 1950’s can’t be brought to mind without the image of Marilyn and the glamour she embodied that rooted her in our hearts.
Marilyn was a legend, not only because she was uniquely vulnerable, but also because she died so early and so mysteriously. Although Marilyn was not the most photographed celebrity, her most famous photos were made into posters, post cards, T-shirts and into framed pictures for collection. Laser-printed and silk-screen images of Marilyn Monroe have also adorned fabric purses commemorating the goddess of the silver screen.
