MILTON'S MARILYN: THE PHOTGRAPHS OF MILTON H. GREENE
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
As the previous reviewers commented, I found this book to be a superlative photo album of one of America's foremost photographers. Mr. Green truly captured Marilyn Monroe's candid beauty. Green brought forth Monroe's innocence as well as her sensual and goddess like images through the lens of his camera. You see her playfully swimming and frolicking in a pool. You see her riding atop an elephant in Madison Square Garden, NY to help benefit Children's Charity. The closing photos in the book of her portrayal of Elsie Marina, in the Prince and The Showgirl and "Cherie" the "Chanteuse" in her first movie production of "Bus Stop" are memorable as well. I truly recommend this magnificent work for anyone who enjoys seeing a creative master photographer and the beautiful legendary Monroe.
AMAZING BOOK!

This book is full of Milton Greene's well known photographs of Marilyn. (Ballerina etc...) More interesting are the candied shots, never before seen pictures of Marilyn without make-up, just hanging out with the Greenes, babysitting their son Joshua. It also has great wedding shots of her and Arthur Miller which i have seen nowhere else. This book is a treasuretrove of Marilyn images. It also has a large selection of pictures of the "black Sitting" and their last sitting together. The text is also beautifully written and very informative. Get this BOOK! The cover alone is breathtaking!
