A rare and revealing look at Marilyn Monroe through the lens of Lawrence Schiller—capturing the actress at the height of her fame with striking candor, beauty, and humanity.

Captured in 1962, Lawrence Schiller’s photographs of Marilyn Monroe were taken during the filming of Something’s Got to Give, a production that would become part of Hollywood legend. Granted rare and unprecedented access, Schiller documented Monroe both on and off set—resulting in a series of images that feel remarkably immediate, unguarded, and alive.

 

Schiller’s photographs of Monroe are not just documents of a moment in time; they are enduring cultural artifacts. They capture a figure who remains endlessly mythologized, yet through Schiller’s lens, undeniably real.
