Marilyn--her Life in Her Own Words
A Marilyn Monroe autobiography consisting of over 100 color and black-and-white photographs, and interviews conducted over a six week period two months before her death. Barris, a photographer and journalist, photographed Monroe at a Santa Monica beach and in her North Hollywood home while she related the details of her childhood, her career as an actress, and her aspirations for the future. Both words and pictures, many of which have never been published before, portray a highly energetic, funny, and beautiful survivor at the pinnacle of her success. No index.
