Some Like It Hot... Off the Press!

Two big Marilyn Monroe announcements this week. First, the 26-foot-tall statue of Marilyn that memorializes her famous subway-grate stance in The Seven-Year Itch has been moved from The Windy City to Palm Springs. Created by artist Seward Johnson, the “Forever Marilyn” statue was created by artist Seward Johnson and weighs in at 40-000 pounds. (They always did say Marilyn was rather curvy!) After spending nearly year on Michigan Avenue in Chicago, Marilyn’s new home (until 2013) will be at Palm Canyon Drive and Tahquitz Canyon Way in the desert, because as one corny news reporter stated, “Some like it hot!”

And speaking of hot – off the press, that is – (and I called the news reporter corny??), I approved the final proof of my book. It will have an official launch date on June 1^st, what would’ve been Marilyn’s 86^th Birthday. And while I’m thrilled to have finally completed the book, I’m also a bit sad because Jane, the woman who opened the door on Marilyn’s world and took me by the hand on a journey I had never imagined, is not here to celebrate with me. I had no idea our friendship and her story would become such an important part of my own life. And now, Jane, it took us a decade, but our journey finally ends with the pages of “our” book. You and I have finished the course…
