One of the most recognizable faces in the world, Marilyn Monroe is an icon of glamour and sensuality. Although her life was cut short at the age of 36, she was a screen legend and is still revered as one of the most beautiful actresses of all time. The name “blond bombshell” may as well have been invented for her because she embodied the essence of sultry sexiness. She started in such films as “Some Like it Hot”, “Gentleman Prefer Blondes” and “The Seven Year Itch” making her a major box office attraction during the 1950s.

Even decades after her death, Marilyn Monroe remains one of the greatest film stars of all time. Her career as an actress spanned over 16 years, making a total of 29 films.
