My third featuring Norma Jeane reading. I really hadn’t an interest in a Marilyn collage until I had the honor of visiting Hotel Bel Air, where she had her last photo shoot. Something about walking the hidden oasis made me want to look deeper at her many photographs. I came to learn she was quite a voracious reader - and this one was one of the titles in her collection.
