This exquisite array of over 140 previously unpublished photographs is interlaced with Marilyn Monroe's own reminiscences of her life. It features exclusive photos from the collections of Marilyn Remembered, the Los Angeles fan club with many members who actually knew Marilyn-her photographers, hairdressers, fellow actors, foster sister, and stand-in. Through the wonders of digital technology, these images have been restored to their original luster and are beautifully interwoven with the star's own words about her life as transcribed from interviews recorded shortly before her death.

This review is from: Marilyn by Moonlight: A Remembrance in Rare Photos (Hardcover)

It is just a little difficult to state; at the risk of sounding completely redundant, however, "beauty is beauty". When it came to Marilyn Monroe, she was synonomous with the word. This book was written by one of Monroe's fan clubs, (Marilyn Remembered Club). It presents to the reader previously unpublished photos of her during her childhood thru the last days of her life. The book features truly enjoyable and memorable photos from some of her most significant films. Some even show her posing candidly with fans off the set in her "Sugar" Kovalschek costume, from "Some Like It Hot". "Marilyn By Moolight: A Remembrance in Rare Photos", should be a must have addition to any serious Monroe fan as well as any person who enjoys viewing a person who in my opinion personified,(and still does), what feminine beauty is all about. I heartily endorse this book. It is a proud addition to my extensive "Marilyn Monroe" collection.
