She wanted to learn. She wanted to BE SOMEBODY more than anybody I ever saw before in my life.\" And she became Marilyn Monroe. That is, in the eyes of all but a select few insiders who like Miss Snively saw that the greatest sex symbol of all time was a pure fabrication. An exquisitely crafted act. A dazzling illusion who disappeared as soon as the makeup came off at night. Through those insiders' eyes CASTING NORMA JEANE now recaptures the late summer of 1946 as a restless model and starlet described as \"pretty but plain\" steps into a role that will make her the most photographed, most talked about, and most written about woman of the 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames Glaeg is a journalist and documentarian whose favored milieu has been the movie and television factories of Hollywood.
