Marilyn Monroe
Marilyn Monroe died on August 4, 1962 after suffering a barbiturate overdose. Norma Jean Baker (her real name) was 36 years old and left behind a life full of contrasts: a star adored by millions of people around the world, struggling with numerous psychological and emotional problems that she herself attributed to her childhood and, to a lesser extent, scale, compared to the weight of fame.
One of Hollywood’s greatest icons, Marilyn made countless films that marked a generation, such as Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953), How to Make a Millionaire (1953) and The Seven Year Itch (1955). Marilyn also appeared on the cover of the first edition of Playboy magazine, in 1953. The magazine was a success and helped turn Playboy into an empire.
