Reaching for Stardom
In her early days as a model, still known as Norma Jeane, Marilyn took her first steps into the world of modeling. One of her initial assignments was for Douglas Airlines, where her curly hair, innocent smile, and the intriguing spark in her eyes made her a natural in front of the camera.
She also found herself featured in various magazine shoots, but it was a turning point when photographer Raphael Wolff selected her for a shampoo advertisement. Marilyn’s decision to bleach and straighten her hair marked a significant shift in her modeling career, leading to a steady stream of bookings.
