Marilyn Monroe is one of the most iconic actresses of all time – her signature glamour and platinum blonde hair made her a sensation.
From humble beginnings, she grew up to be one of the most famous women in the world. Born in Los Angeles, Monroe spent most of her childhood in orphanages and foster homes.
While working in a factory during the Second World War, she was discovered by a photographer who scouted her to model for pin up images.
