Many know Marilyn Monroe as the iconic movie star through her on-screen persona. On Book Spectrum's Season 3 finale, we will bring you a look the Hollywood legend as you never knew her, far from the spotlight.
Biographer Jay Margolis, author of ‘My Maril, Marilyn Monroe, Ronald Reagan, Hollywood and Me.” tells Marilyn's personal story through the eyes of Terry Karger, whose family were close friends of the sliver screen legend dating back to when she was known as "Norma Jeane" and the young narrator's babysitter.
Jay discusses Terry's memories of Ms. Monroe, who she really was when not pretending to be the "dizzy blonde" sterrotype, how Marilyn was an influence in Terry's own life and career, her loves and relationships away from the paparazzi and tabloids as well as both Jay's and Terry's thoughts on the mysterious circumstances surrounding the acclaimed actress' death.
In the book, Terry also recalls her interactions and personal relationships with other members of the Hollywood Hierarchy like Ronald Reagan, Jane Wyman and many more.
