Nothing sums Marilyn up better than Elton John's song, "Candle In The Wind." A marvelous beauty -- she is our culture's Venus -- she none the less lived her life with a certain lack of arrogance and confidence that made her accessible and loved by millions.
From her storybook romance with Joe DiMaggio, the Yankee slugger, who was with Michael Jordan of his era in terms of athlete popularity, to her flirtatous association with the Kennedys to effortless, unassuming charisma, Marilyn's off-the-screen life contributed to her legend as much as her on-screen talent.
Hers is an undying grace. Her beauty lives on as our cultural standard. Like few pop culture icons, she has achieved a place in American history that helps define her era. Simply put, Marilyn Monroe never be forgotten.
