In 1954, Marilyn Monroe took on the role of a working girl for a photo shoot with Milton Greene on the 20th Century Fox Studios backlots in Los Angeles, coinciding with the filming of "Bus Stop" — Monroe's first movie appearance.
This series of photographs is known as "
The Hooker Sitting."
Before her marriage to Arthur Miller, Monroe stayed with Milton Greene and his family at their Connecticut farmhouse.
It was during this time that Greene captured some of the most stunning images of Marilyn Monroe, showcasing her various moods, beauty, talent, and spirit, with this particular shoot highlighting her provocative allure.
