Marilyn Monroe's
Los Angeles:
The Tour
The Best of Los Angeles from
Santa Monica to Hollywood
Norma Jeane Baker and her later incarnation as Marilyn Monroe changed residences some sixty times during her life. For this reason, it is sometimes difficult to ascertain exactly where she was living at a given time. Also, for reasons of privacy, she sometimes lived at simultaneous addresses. The fourteen residences you will see on the tour were indeed lived in by Norma Jeane or Marilyn, and I am reasonably sure that the dates I give for each residence are accurate.
It is often hard to sort fact from fiction in the life of this double personality. In interviews Marilyn often distorted or embellished the events in her life. Sometimes she even made them up.
This tour will get you as close as you will ever come to Marilyn Monroe and her life in Los Angeles. By the end of the tour you will have “relived" much of both Norma Jeane’s and Marilyn’s life. The tour is based on the upscale "Marilyn Monroe’s Los Angeles" tour offered by my former company Insider Tours. The fourteen residences you will see on the tour were indeed lived in by Norma Jeane or Marilyn, and I am reasonably sure that the dates I give for each residence are accurate.
