"THE LAST SITTING" MARILYN MONROE PHOTOGRAPHED BY BERT STERN

I was invited to attend a reception for Bert Stern at The Staley-Wise Gallery. His girlfriend Shannah Laumeister, and her team, produced a documentary about the famed photographer Bert Stern. Over the years, I had heard some not so nice things about Bert, but I adore Marilyn and Stern was the last photographer to photograph her before her death.
