Norma Jeane (Marilyn Monroe) photographed by William Carroll in 1945. For most of her early photoshoots, she often supplied her own clothes for each shoot, and did her own makeup. Carroll concurred: “Norma Jeane brought a good selection of personal clothing, all of which had been ironed and was ready to use. Note that this was not ‘model’ clothing as I have no reason to believe she had any. Just a good clothes-closet selection from which we used almost everything.”
