George Barris
Between June 1 and July 18, 1962 just two weeks before Marilyn died, George Barris became the last photographer to shoot Marilyn Monroe. Known as the "Last Photos" this series of photographs, over 250 in all, were taken on the beach in Santa Monica and at a private home in the Hollywood Hills. The photos are all shot with natural lighting and with no artifice as to reveal the "true" Marilyn, and leave us with a window of what she was possibly thinking in the last days...
