"The Hollywood Museum, in the Historic Max Factor Building, is located at 1660 N. Highland Ave. in the heart of Hollywood. The scope of the exhibition encompasses Marilyn's costumes, jewelry, furs and accessories from her films; publicity gowns and personal wardrobe; her 1961 Fleetwood Cadillac limousine; original Marilyn Monroe artwork, photographs and documents from her private files; and many of Marilyn's personally owned artifacts.

For a star whose career lasted about all of 12 years (1950-1962)  it is simply astonishing.  Photographer George Barris who took those iconic last photos of Marilyn at the beach and at her house in 1962, will also be signing his books and photos on August 4 at the Hollywood Museum.
