Much has been chronicled about the life of Marilyn Monroe---from her difficult childhood and meteoric rise to stardom---to her turbulent love life and tragic death, and ultimate transcendence to become one of pop culture's true immortals. Photographer Richard C. Miller's images transport us back to Los Angeles in the spring of 1946, (just months before she would go on to Hollywood) for rare glimpses of an unknown model named Norma Jeane, whose stunning beauty, mesmerizing smile and effervescent spirit herald the imminent arrival of a goddess.
Asgard Press is honored to present sixteen rare and previously unpublished photographs of a young Marilyn Monroe in this unique calendar format for the first time ever. Printed on heavy, 100% recycled paper (50% post-consumer) with soy-based inks, this eco-friendly edition is a timeless tribute to an incomparable icon.
