Marilyn Monroe was the defining actress of her age. Born in Los Angeles in 1926, Monroe first gained notice for small but memorable roles in "The Asphalt Jungle "and "All About Eve "in 1950. Over the next decade, she starred in numerous films, including "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," "Some Like It Hot," "How to Marry a Millionaire," and "The Seven Year Itch." Acclaimed for these and many other performances, Monroe also studied with Lee Strasberg at the Actors Studio. She died in 1962.
