Marilyn Monroe: President John
built 664 days ago
A one paged typed letter outlining an agreement between Marilyn Monroe and John Carroll dated December 4, 1947. When MM was just twenty-one, Carroll agreed that "For and in consideration of the sum of One-Hundred ($100.00) to be paid you weekly, you hereby agree that you shall engage your professional services as an actress only through me." Both parties signed in black fountain pen ink; MM's signature being very deliberate and neat-looking as she had just recently changed her name from Norma Jeane Baker to Marilyn Monroe. On December 7, 1947, just three days after Marilyn signed this agreement, "Dangerous Years" was released, giving MM her first speaking part as Evie the spirited waitress. Included are reprinted images of MM in "Dangerous Years." 7 ½ X 10 inches

Sometime after 10 p.m. on August 4, 1962, Marilyn Monroe slipped into a coma caused by an overdose of sleeping pills. She would never regain consciousness. Shortly after she was discovered, a bizarre set of activities took place in her Brentwood home at 12305 Fifth Helena Drive. Some items were allegedly removed, including a diary and an incriminating note which could have far-reaching implications, if discovered. The order for their removal was believed to have come from someone in the White House, in an attempt to prevent a scandal from toppling the presidency of John F. Kennedy.

Historians find no documented evidence that Marilyn had an affair with Robert Kennedy, though there is credible evidence that she was intimate with John Kennedy, starting sometime in the 1950s. By the '60s, the relationships was so obvious that aides warned him to be more discreet. During the Thousand Days of his administration they continued to meet, though not at the White House, and she told her friends about the trysts.

Monroe returned to Hollywood to resume filming on the George Cukor comedy Something's Got to Give, a never-finished film that has become legendary for problems on the set and proved a costly debacle for Fox. In May 1962, she made her last significant public appearance, singing Happy Birthday, Mr. President at a televised birthday party for President John F. Kennedy.
