Synopsis
Entertainment journalist J. Randy Taraborrelli has fascinated readers by revealing the hidden sides of Madonna, Elizabeth Taylor, and Michael Jackson in his previous biographies. Here he turns his attention to the most captivating, the most glamorous, and the most mysterious movie star of the 20th century, Marilyn Monroe, whose secrets have already filled dozens of lesser biographies. Using freshly declassified government documents and numerous interviews with the people who knew Marilyn best, Taraborrelli has uncovered an astonishing array of new details about Marilyn's life, including the identity of her father and half-brother and specific evidence of her affairs with both John and Robert Kennedy. Most poignantly, Taraborrelli provides a full account of Marilyn's secret relationship with her disturbed mother, who suffered from a hereditary form of mental illness which likely contributed to Marilyn's fatal overdose. Thanks to a riveting mix of beauty, success and distress, the legend of Marilyn Monroe lives on, and Taraborrelli's investigative triumph seems likely to remain the definitive account of her remarkable life.

Publisher's Note
A profile of the iconic 1950s actress draws on previously untapped sources to explore the roles of the influential women in her life, from the mentally ill mother who was publicly denied to her foster mother and legal guardian, in an account that also discusses Monroe's own struggles with mental illness, her estranged father, and the Kennedys. 175,000 first printing.
