✡️ Today's Jew of the Day is Marilyn Monroe!
Marilyn Monroe was an actress, a model, and a singer. She was known as one of the most iconic figures in Hollywood and is considered a sex symbol, both then and today. In addition to her many acting roles, Monroe is known for her business saavy, having eshewed the Hollywood studio monopoly system by creating her own film production company, which not only gave her contract leverage, but signaled to other actors at the time that they have greater power and control in their own contracts.
Monroe's filmography has many notable roles, including Clash By Night, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, How to Marry a Millionaire, and Some Like It Hot.
Monroe was also a Zionist who had been invited to speak at the United Jewish Appeal, but had to decline after her husband was pressured by the government for possible ties to Communism.
