When this girl was born, her father had abandoned her, she and her mother, that was just the beginning of everything that had to come later.

"Little time, my mother, the reason, the destination, the girl the so-called Norma, was a pilgrimage. However, a place, one, another that would surprise me, traumatic experiences and reach adolescence, a marriage without a happy ending."

But, suddenly, someone noticed her and appeared in some photos wearing a swimsuit and then made the leap to the movie screen. Then they demanded that he change the color of his hair and the name. His hair was platinum blond, his name was Marilyn Monroe.

And that orphaned and battered girl was made suddenly, in the most powerful sexual symbol of the twentieth century.
The first time he realized that he did not have the name or the name or the movies or the news.

But behind that successful and overwhelming woman, beyond an emotional tragedy that the world did not suspect; It was a tragedy that a Hollywood did not care. To placate their anguish and insecurities, Marilyn Monroe, go to excesses of alcohol and barbiturates. But its end is another story.

Today we remember that Marilyn Monroe, the most powerful sexual symbol of the 20th century and a touching human case, was born on a day like today, June 1, 1926.

What we like is happy, without cameras, without false poses, without lights or autographs, without blond hair, without conjurations or barbiturates, in the midst of endless silence.

Happy birthday, on this June 1st, Norma Jeane Baker, better known as Marilyn Monroe.
