Cascadia Entertainment: The Hometown Story & the Marilyn Monroe Story

Marilyn Monroe made 29 films during the 16 years she was an actress. On June 1, 1926, Norma Jeane Mortenson was born fatherless to a financially and mentally unstable mother. She was in and out of foster homes from an early age. She was married to Jim Dougherty(a marine), at a young age for financial stability and security. Joe DiMaggio(a baseball star), for love and Arthur Miller(a writer) for intellectual idealism. Rumor was Marily was involved with President John F. Kennedy. Her tranquilizer addiction caused friction in the film studios. Her tranquilizer overdose is questionable to this day.
