Happy Birthday Marilyn Monroe (June 1, 1926 - August 5, 1962)

“She listens, wants, cares. I catch her laughing across a room and I bust up. Every pore of that lovely translucent skin is alive, open every moment - even though this world could make her vulnerable to being hurt. I would rather work with her than any other actress. I adore her.”

- Montgomery Clift

life:

Her sex-symbol image aside, Marilyn Monroe was an avid reader of 20th-century literature and was often photographed curling up with a book, as in this Peter Stackpole shot taken at her Hollywood home in 1953.

Marilyn was blessed with a healthy appetite for laughter. She was aware of her sense of humor about herself and she called on it to rescue her from that grey outer space to which she sometimes drifted.

Each curve was in the right place, but like a painted illustration in Playboy magazine, each was conspicuously exaggerated. Socially she tried not to rock the boat. She was outgiving and charming. If you wanted to talk about yourself, she listened. She was defensively shy. If you wanted to talk about her, she blushed. It you wanted to sing, she joined the chorus.
