The name of Norma Jeane Mortenson may not resonate with many. Given to a girl who was raised in countless foster homes and an orphanage during the 1920’s in Los Angeles.
Norma would go on to marry for the first time at just sixteen before embarking on a factory job career during the outbreak of World War II. It was an uninspiring, but not uncommon life to be accustomed to.
However, Norma Jeane was no ordinary Jane…she would go on to become one of the greatest ever known icons in Hollywood screen history. She was also of course known as Marilyn Monroe.
