The beautiful and incomparable Norma Jeane Mortenson (Baker), known to the world as Marilyn Monroe, hardly needs an introduction. Born on June 1, 1926, she will always be loved and adored by millions, living forever in our hearts. Countless books and articles have been written and movies produced detailing her life, career, and tragic demise on August 5, 1962. Buried in Pierce Brothers Memorial Park in the Westwood section of Los Angeles, she rests only a few steps away from Bob Crane's final resting place.
In 1960, Bob interviewed Ms. Monroe, which was broadcast over KNX-CBS Radio in 1960 and 1964. We hope you enjoy both her sweetness and his humor, remembering them each for their talents and career highlights, and as kind souls taken from the world much too soon.
