The sensational biography of one of the twentieth century's greatest iconsJust before midnight on August 4, 1962, rumors began spreading from a quiet little bungalow in Los Angeles. Before the story broke the next morning, America's boldest names already knew of the tragedy: Marilyn Monroe was dead, and Hollywood would never be the same.Anthony Summers interviewed more than six hundred people for this exhaustive biography, unearthing previously untold stories from those who knew Marilyn best. What he found is that no one, not even the star herself, truly understood her. In her short life, she was a different woman to each of her friends, lovers, and directors, and the mystery of her death touched some of the most powerful people in the United Statesboth inside and outside the law. Here for the first time are answers to some of the questions she left behind, and the most complete portrait yet of the woman who forever changed what it means to be a star.
