Their bond deepened as Marilyn requested their collaboration on the book "Marilyn: Life In Her Own Words," leading up to the final photo sessions of her life in the Hollywood Hills and on the serene Santa Monica Beach in 1962. These intimate moments revealed Marilyn's vulnerability and inner strength, capturing her essence as both a timeless icon and a woman navigating personal and public challenges.
