Marilyn Monroe 100 – The Official Centenary Book

Authors: Christian Siriano, Rachel Syme, David Wills and Louie Conway

Marilyn Monroe 100 is the only official book celebrating Marilyn Monroe's hundredth birth year. This exclusive centenary book is published in close cooperation with the Marilyn Monroe Estate and offers an unparalleled and complete portrait of one of the greatest icons of the twentieth century.

The book brings together the work of seventeen photographers who closely followed Marilyn between 1945 and 1962. From early images of a young Norma Jeane to world-famous glamour portraits and intimate, candid behind-the-scenes moments. Photographers such as André de Dienes, Joseph Jasgur, and Bernard of Hollywood show her first steps. Photos by John Florea and Philippe Halsman reveal a rising star, while Eve Arnold, Elliott Erwitt, Bruce Davidson, and Henri Cartier-Bresson capture Marilyn on the sets of her most iconic films. Cecil Beaton and Richard Avedon highlight her timeless beauty, and photographers such as Alfred Eisenstaedt, Sam Shaw, George Barris, and Milton Greene reveal a more personal, vulnerable side.

The book concludes with Bert Stern's legendary Last Sitting, complemented by recently rediscovered photographs by Allan Grant for Life magazine, published just two days before Marilyn's death. Together they form an impressive visual testament.

In addition to photography, Marilyn Monroe 100 contains a rich selection of quotes from Marilyn herself, combined with essays by leading writers and cultural experts. They paint a picture of a woman with a unique personality: complex, intelligent, and far ahead of her time. One hundred years after her birth, it becomes clear how avant-garde Marilyn Monroe truly was.

This beautiful coffee table book is a monumental and stylish tribute to a woman who profoundly changed the world.
