That Hotdog Stop





50 YEARS TODAY SINCE MARILYN'S TRAGIC PASSING. Iconized as America's quintessential sex symbol, any image of her that comes to mind possess no less than overt sensuality and a bombshell quality unmatched by today's starlets.

But blowing skirts and décolletées aside, I instead feature on this day, a more wholesome side to Marilyn. Here, the newlywed actress stops for hotdogs with husband Arthur Miller and photographer friend Milton Greene, on their way to Connecticut where both Miller and Greene resided.
