9/09/1954 Arrivée à New York
Le 8 septembre 1954, Marilyn Monroe s'envole à 21 heures de Los Angeles, d'où Joe DiMaggio est venu l'accompagner à l'aéroport pour l'embrasser et lui dire au revoir, pour se rendre à New York, où elle doit tourner des scènes extérieures du film The Seven Year Itch (Sept ans de réflexion). Joe ne l'accompagne pas. Elle porte un tailleur moulant avec un gros noeud, une tenue qu'elle a emprunté aux studios, qu'elle avait porté dans There's no business like show business (La joyeuse parade) dont le tournage venait à peine de se terminer.
Arrivée à l'aéroport de New York le lendemain, le 9 septembre à 8h15, le Idlewild Airport, Marilyn est assaillie par la foule de curieux et de journalistes: des reporters, des photographes et même les caméras sont présentes. Marilyn se prête au jeu et prend la pose longuement sur le tarmac; puis, escortée par la police, elle rentre dans le hall de l'aéroport, où elle est interviewée.
Parmi les photographes présents: Sam Schulman, Paul Schumach, Weegee, Sam Shaw.

18/09/1959 de N.Y à L.A.
Le 18 septembre 1959, Marilyn Monroe s'envole pour Los Angeles. Spyros Skouras, le président de la Twentieth Century Fox, l'a invitée pour qu'elle participe au grand gala donné en l'honneur de Nikita Khrouchtchevh, le dirigeant de l'Union Soviétique. Arthur Miller accompagne Marilyn à l'aéroport, mais il reste à New York: ayant été sur la Black List des partisans communistes, il n'aurait pas été judicieux pour Miller de s'afficher médiatiquement avec l'un des dirigeants communistes.
On September 18, 1959, Marilyn Monroe leaves New York for Los Angeles where she has been invited by Spyros Skouras to participate to the reception given for Nikita Khrouchtchev, leader of USSR. Arthur Miller accompanied Marilyn at the airport, but he stays in New York as he was on the Black List of the communist partisans, so he would not have been wise for Miller to appear with a media-communist leaders.

C'est durant la soirée qu'Haberman raconta avoir "couché" avec Marilyn.
This was the evening Haberman said he "slept" with Marilyn Monroe.
A son arrivée à Los Angeles, un reporter demande à Marilyn si elle est venue uniquement pour voir Khrouchtchev:
-"Oui" répond-t-elle. "Je pense que c'est une chose merveilleuse, et je suis contente d'être ici."
Ce qui provoqua l'inévitable question: "Pensez-vous que Khrouchtchev veut vous voir ?"
-"Je l'éspère" répond-t-elle.
At her arrival in Los Angeles, a journalist asks to Marilyn if she comes in the town just to see Khrushchev.
- "Yes," she said. "I think it's a wonderful thing, and I'm happy to be here."
That provoked the inevitable follow-up question: "Do you think Khrushchev wants to see you ?"
-"I hope he does," she replied.

Carlson took these photos with a David White Stereo Realist Camera, a dual-lens camera that creates a three-dimensional effect when seen through a special viewer.
Carlson was hired as a sound engineer for the party, and had ample opportunity to take candid pictures of the actress that day. Wearing a hot pink cocktail dress that she also wore in her breakout film Niagara, Monroe arrived in a helicopter and proceeded to pose for photos with Anthony, Mickey Rooney, the helicopter pilot, a dog and alone in front of a blown-up piece of sheet music for the song.
A fantastic collection of Marilyn Monroe images.

Lot 4055: Marilyn Monroe telegram to director George Cukor, 1962
Western Union telegram stamped June 8, 1862: "Dear George. Please believe me it was not my doing. I had so looked forward to working with you. Warmly Marilyn."
Cukor and Monroe had worked together on the 1960 musical, Let's Make Love. Cukor admired Monroe's star quality and gift for comedy, but found her to be difficult, to say the least. Nonetheless, he signed on again two years later for what would be Monroe's final project: the never completed Something's Got To Give, a remake of the screwball comedy, My Favorite Wife. During filming of the latter, Monroe was frequently absent from the set or held up filming when she was there with her erratic work habits. She also left California in May to travel to New York and sing her infamous rendition of "Happy Birthday" to JFK. When Cukor had shot every scene not containing Monroe, and when she still did not appear on set, 20th Century Fox famously fired her on the morning of June 8, 1962. After receiving the news, Monroe sent this apologetic telegram to Cukor, but it made no difference. Less than two months later, she was found dead in her Brentwood home.
