She made 29 films, 24 in the first 8 years of her career.Born as Norma Jeane Mortenson on June 1, 1926 in Los Angeles General Hospital, her mother, Gladys, listed the fathers address as unknown. Marilyn would never know the true identity of her father- she became the legend that is Marilyn Monroe and to this day creates as much buzz in the media world as she did in her lifetimeHaving been a fan of the legend that is Marilyn Monroe since an early age, it seemed whoever I interviewed had either met / worked and known something about her during my journalistic career. As the years went on I noticed this even more to the point I was lucky enough to meet and interview some very famous people whom have not had their "Marilyn "stories told beforeI started with a trusty cassette player which along the way had me meeting the likes of Sir Lawrence Oliver, Charlton Heston and even Sir Norman Wisdom, what is fascinating when reviewing the tapes along with never broadcast interviews with Tony Curtis, Mickey Rooney and Debbie Reynolds to name just a few is how revealing the whole conversations areI urge everyone to take a look at the book if you're a true Marilyn fan as it will give you a rare insight into her final months and as Ricci Martin (Son of Dean) who met Marilyn many times told me "it's the biggest story in the world of showbiz ever and yes I was party to it in many ways which is frightening "I met Marilyn will shock, delight and leave you with a brand new view of the movie icon and it's been a pleasure to share this story of the blonde sex symbol who became a legend with you.Neil Sean
