The Marilyn Monroe Century

Unseen photographs and private diary entries from Marilyn Monroe's closest photographer reveal the woman behind the icon.

A lavishly produced tribute, this gift-ready visual biography features a lenticular cover that brings an iconic moment to life. 

Published to commemorate what would have been Monroe's 100th birthday, The Marilyn Monroe Centuryfeatures rare photographs by Bruno Bernard, also known as Bernard of Hollywood, that have never been publicly released. It traces the emotional and artistic evolution of Norma Jeane Mortenson into Marilyn Monroe. 

More than a collection of photographs, The Marilyn Monroe Century unfolds as a cinematic narrative. Bernard was the only photographer who witnessed and helped shape the full arc of Norma Jeane's metamorphosis into Marilyn Monroe.
