The early years
Born as Norma Jeanne Mortenson on 1 st June 1926, Marilyn Monroe was one of those few
Hollywood stars who created a legacy that was to continue for decades even after they had
died. She started her acting career with the movie ‘Dangerous Years’ which released in 1947.
However, Monroe had to wait for another six years before she could make it big on the silver
screens.
It was in 1953 when Monroe starred in three blockbuster movies, ‘Niagara’, ‘Gentlemen prefer
blondes’ and ‘How to marry a millionaire’. With these movies hitting the screens, both the
popularity of Monroe and the demand for Marilyn Monroe posters has been moving north and
has never faced a decline over the last 60 years.
Monroe as a sex symbol
As she grew famous, tales of her different love affairs started floating in the air and soon
enough she bagged the title of ‘heartbreaker’ for herself. She had three marriages, none of
which lasted for more than 5 years. The various Marilyn Monroe posters that were getting
popular day by day had been making her the object of desire for billions of men.
One of the most sensational photo sessions that happened with Monroe was in 1954 during the
shooting of the film ‘The Seven Year itch’. A particular scene of this movie was shot in Lexington
Avenue in NYC where the bombshell was seen standing over a subway grate trying to control
her white skirt which was being blown up by the air blower on which she was standing. This
scene became the most famous scene of her filmy career.
During her professional career, Monroe posed nude for a calendar in 1949 under the name of
Mona Monroe. This was the only instance she posed nude for money. These photos proved to
be the biggest scandal of her career in the future. The Marilyn Monroe posters available at

The headlines of the newspapers of 6 th August 1962 shocked the whole world as it reported the
death of Marilyn Monroe due to drug overdose. The ruler of billion hearts was found dead in
her apartment with the phone in her hand. While officials blamed the drug overdose to be
