1961. "Marilyn Monroe posed on a bed under white sheets." Photo by Douglas Kirkland for the Look magazine assignment "Four for Posterity." View full size.
Dressed or undressed, sitting, standing or lying down, Marilyn had a type of beauty few women of her era could match.
Two women captivated my youthful imagination like no others: Marilyn, with her blond hair, and Liz Taylor with her jet black tresses.
Marilyn's death at an early age was a tragedy: I often wonder how she would have looked as she grew older.
There are equally beautiful women today too, but not like her. She was one of a kind. Exceptional and unique.
