Norma Jeane Mortenson; June 1, 1926 – August 4, 1962)
On August 5, 1962, movie actress Marilyn Monroe was found dead
in her home in Los Angeles. She was discovered lying nude on her
bed, face down, with a telephone in one hand. Empty bottles of pills, prescribed to treat her depression, were littered around the room.
After a brief investigation, Los Angeles police concluded that her
death was “caused by a self-administered overdose of sedative
drugs and that the mode of death is probable suicide.”
