註釋On June 1, 1962, George Barris, internationally renowned photographer and journalist, arrived at the Hollywood movie set where Marilyn Monroe was making her last film, 'Something's Got to Give'. It was Marilyn's thirty-sixth birthday and George Barris was assigned by a national magazine to photograph and interview her. Eight years earlier, Barris first met Marilyn while she was filming The Seven Year Itch in New York. They got on famously then and agreed to someday produce a picture book and autobiography together. Now the time had come for them to carry out Marilyn's dream. For the next six weeks, George Barris photographed Marilyn on the beach at Santa Monica and in a house in North Hollywood and Marilyn told him the story of her life - she was exuberant, carefree, and eager to live. George Barris talked to Marilyn Monroe one more time, on Friday afternoon, August 3. She was found dead on Saturday, August 4, less than twenty-four hours after Marilyn had phoned him. The tragic news of Marilyn's death shocked the nation ... and George Barris. For over thirty years, he kept from publication her complete story. Now decades later, he believes it is time to share Marilyn's legacy with the world.
