So i was up Wednesday night flipping through channels before i went to sleep. i have this weird thing where my T.V has to be on until the few seconds i fall asleep. well i stumbled upon the Marylin Monroe tribute that i missed earlier that day(i was pretty mad about that because Marylin is one of my favorite old hollywood actress.. after Audrey of course... sorry). Eve and Marylin; a tribute to Marylin Monroe by photographer Eve Arnold. she is a brilliant with a camera. i would love to be on the other side of her camera.

it was about Eve's experience with Marylin while she was shooting her. She talked about that book that she published years after Marylin died "Marylin Monroe An Appreciation by Eve Arnold". she said that the reason why she took so long to put out the book of photos is because she didn't want to admit she was dead. it makes sense. i am not sure when this was filmed I'm thinking the 80's because the interviewing film looks pretty dated; the publishing year is 87. Here are some pics from the book.
