Photojournalist Eve Arnold’s photographs of Marilyn Monroe are some of the most intimate and candid photographs ever taken of the Hollywood legend, and reflect not only their long working relationship, but also the 1950s. It also stems from a friendship that began at the beginning.
Arnold, who died in 2012 at the age of 99, published two books of photographs of Monroe during his lifetime. Now, “Marilyn Monroe” by Eve Arnold is a newly revised and redesigned edition of the photographer’s 1987 book “Marilyn Monroe: Appreciation,” which spotlights more than 100 photos of the actress. I’m guessing.
In addition to contributions by Anjelica Huston, a new foreword by Arnold’s grandson Michael Arnold, and the photographer’s own biography of Monroe, the book, to be released by ACC Art Books on September 30th, includes unreleased material from Arnold’s archives. Many publicly available photos are posted. Check out some highlights here.
