For a week in 1955, on assignment for REDBOOK, photojournalist Ed Feingersh took photos of Marilyn Monroe in New York City. The negatives were found in a warehouse decades after his death. The photos were collected in the book MARLYN: MARCH 1955. A copy of the book is included in this sale.
"These photographs show us a Marilyn we have rarely seen - the complicated, many-sided human being behind the confection Hollywood had made of her."
