Marilyn, her life in pictures, is a really great source of info on Marilyn Monroe. It is filled with stories, interviews, and of course, images on Marilyn Monroe.

Wikipedia was a very handy site for finding out general information about Marilyn’s life. I used this source to map out the timeline of my speech and find general details about her films and accomplishments. Wikipedia has a lot of information on it, so I only used it to check the information I needed instead of reading through the whole thing. I would recommend a Wikipedia page for researching anything just as another source to check information, but not to primarily get information from.
