Norma Jeane Mortenson (June 1, 1926 – August 5, 1962), better known as Marilyn Monroe, was an American Golden Globe Award winning actress, singer, model and pop icon. She became known for her comedic skills and screen presence, going on to become one of the most popular movie stars of the 1950s. Later in her career, she worked towards serious roles with a measure of success. However, long-standing problems were exacerbated by disappointments in both her career and personal life during her later years. Her death has been subject to speculation and conspiracy theories.

She helped the President with his "release", thus comprimising national security. No I'm just kidding she helped issue a new type of celebrity. Marilyn Monroe was the first blonde bombshell superstar. She sang, acted, and looked beautiful. She gained all kinds of scrutiny from the media, because she couldn't sing or act too well. The media always had something to say about her. She was a big time celebrity in the public eye and posed naked for Playboy, and died of a "drug overdose". She partied with other big singers and actors, and married a sports legend. If that's not influencing American culture then I don't know what is.

She didn't help or change America. She was an "actress". Her biggest claim to fame were her husbands, Joe DiMaggio and the playwright Aurther Miller. Her true love was rumored to be JFK, which would make Marilyn nothing more than the first Monica.

You should also do some more searches on the name "Norma Jean Baker". How did the blonde bombshell cause controversy? She was Blonde and Gorgeous. She was a (well liked - to a point - and successful) actress She had multiple husbands The scene from "Some like it hot" will still get males over the age of 60 dreamy eyed. (That's the one where she stands over a hot air grate and her skirt gets blown up) She posed nude for Playboy She was the alleged mistress of JFK and she died in rather mysterious circumstances. There should be more???

I don't think she did anything for America.I do think she did show just how beautiful a full figured woman can be. I understand she was a size 12.
