- Marilyn Monroe (1926-1962) was an American actress, singer, and model who became one of the most iconic and enduring symbols of Hollywood glamour. Born Norma Jeane Mortenson, she overcame a troubled childhood to become a major star in the 1950s and early 1960s. Known for her comedic roles in films such as "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" and "Some Like It Hot," Monroe's on-screen persona combined innocence with sensuality, making her a beloved figure worldwide.

One of Monroe's most famous images comes from the 1955 film "The Seven Year Itch." In the iconic scene, Monroe stands over a subway grate in a white halter dress, which billows up as a train passes beneath, revealing her legs. This pose, often referred to as "Marilyn's 7 Year Itch Pose," encapsulates her blend of charm, playfulness, and sex appeal. The photograph of this moment became one of the most recognizable images of Monroe, symbolizing her legacy as a cultural and fashion icon.

Monroe's life, marked by personal struggles and professional triumphs, ended tragically in 1962, but her influence on pop culture and her status as a symbol of beauty and allure endure to this day.
