Marilyn Monroe, born Norma Jeane Mortenson on June 1, 1926, was an iconic American actress, model, and singer. She became one of the most popular sex symbols of the 1950s and early 1960s and was emblematic of the era's attitudes towards sexuality. Although she was a top-billed actress for only a decade, her films grossed over $200 million by the time of her untimely death in 1962, a testament to her enduring popularity and influence.

Monroe's early life was marked by hardship, including an unstable family background, foster care, and an early marriage at sixteen. She began her career as a model and then moved into films, where she had several bit parts before securing a new contract with 20th Century Fox. Her breakout roles in movies like "Niagara," "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," and "How to Marry a Millionaire" solidified her star status.

Despite her onscreen persona as a "dumb blonde," Monroe was more complex in real life, interested in literature and eager to improve her acting skills. She struggled with personal issues, including depression, anxiety, and substance abuse, which affected her professional life and led to her untimely death from a probable drug overdose at the age of 36.

Monroe remains a major cultural icon, symbolizing beauty and glamour, and her life and image continue to be a subject of widespread fascination in popular culture.
