MM, PERSONAL - FROM THE PRIVATE ARCHIVE OF MARYLIN MONROE

Marilyn Monroe is our supreme icon of glamour, vulnerability, personal magnetism, and the American dream, and her legend continues to grow four decades after her death. 'MM - Personal' is a new look behind the veil of that legend, reproducing the most fascinating relics from her private archive,once thought to have been lost, and never before revealed to the public, to clarify, qualify, or reverse many common conceptions about the "blond bombshell".
Selected from more than 10,000 largely unseen and heretofore unpublished items from Marilyn’s own file cabinets, these documents, snapshots, letters, memorabilia, and ephemera are joined by the first account of Monroe’s life since Gloria Steinem’s Marilyn to be written by a feminist historian, revealing shades of her genius that have never before been fully understood.
