A Challenging History
Did I mention I’m a huge fan of Marilyn Monroe? This is the last entry about her, I promise. Norma-Jeane may have been one of the most beautiful women alive, but behind all that success was a pretty rough and toxic childhood. At a very young age, both her parents passed away, leaving her little choice but to live in an orphanage.
At 16, she married her neighbor just to escape her dreadful life. As her then-husband went off to fight in World War II, she started working in a factory in Van Nuys. The photo we have here is said to be the same image that made her famous.
