Top Five Favourite Quotes About Marilyn Monroe:
→ “When I photographed Marilyn playing the roles of various women who were sex symbols of the past, she studied their work, saw their movies, analyzed their makeup and the way they moved and posed. She became very involved with each sitting. I remember our looking at the series of photographs in which she had posed as Jean Harlow. LIFE chose one, while she and I preferred another.
