Marilyn Monroe during the filming of “The Misfits.” Nevada, 1960.
Eve Arnold began photographing Marilyn Monroe after the actress saw her pictures of Marlene Dietrich in Esquire. They met at a party and Monroe posited: “If you could do that well with Marlene, can you imagine what you can do with me?” So began their professional relationship, which, other the years, turned into a mutually respectful friendship. Arnold photographed Monroe six times during the decade she knew her, the shortest session was two hours and the longest was two months, when she saw her daily during the filming of The Misfits.
