Marilyn Monroe
My stage name is Marilyn Monroe but I was born Norma Jeane Mortenson; June 1, 1926 – August 4, 1962) I'm an American actress famous for playing comedic "blonde bombshell" characters, I became one of the most popular sex symbols of the 1950s and early 1960s, as well as an emblem of the era's sexual revolution. I was a top-billed actress for a decade, and my films grossed $200 million by the time of my death in 1962. Long after my death, I remain a major icon of pop culture.
