Norma Jeane with a bow in her hair

Norma Jeane with a bow in her hair photographed by André de Dienes

Paradise Cove, November 1945. Paradise Cove is a secluded beach north of Malibu. It’s where André took Marilyn for their first shoot, the day after Emmeline Snively sent her along to meet him – yes, he was that keen! With a bow in her hair and a faintly shy smile on her face, Marilyn comes across as a pretty, unsophisticated teenager. Photo by André de Dienes.
