About this photo
Marilyn Monroe Del Mar Club - Portrait of a Rising Star in 1951
This exceptional photograph captures Marilyn Monroe at a party at the legendary Del Mar Club in Santa Monica in 1951, the year she signed her first major contract with 20th Century Fox. At that time, Norma Jeane Baker had just officially adopted the name Marilyn Monroe, under the influence of producer Ben Lyon, who saw in her the potential of a major star.
1951 marked a turning point in Monroe’s career with her first notable roles in *The Asphalt Jungle* and *All About Eve*. That year, she was named “Best Young Box Office Personality” by *Photoplay* magazine, an accolade that propelled her burgeoning fame. The Del Mar Club was then the go-to spot for young Hollywood talent, an essential networking hub where artistic destinies were forged.
Get an intimate look at an icon before she becomes a legend.
