In celebration of her enduring artistic legacy, the Paley Center is proud to showcase a new exhibit, presented by Profiles in History, featuring an extraordinary private archive of Monroe treasures, including signature costumes from her films Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, The Prince and the Showgirl, and How to Marry a Millionaire, plus items such as her hand-annotated script from 1955's The Seven Year Itch and other artifacts. The exhibit is framed by beautiful large-format photographs of Monroe captured by photographer Milton H. Greene, and unique historic video material from the Paley Archive chronicling the icon's contributions to television.


The collection features costumes, her yellow-and-black sequined number for Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, her ball gown from The Prince and the Showgirl, and a look from How to Marry a Millionaire. as well as her address book and original scripts.  


Marilyn died on Aug. 5, 1962 but her legacy lives on and on....and that is why we ❤️her and this exhibit.
