🎬 What would Hollywood be without the legacy of its most dazzling sex symbol? ✨ 🎧 In this episode, writer and historian Elisa Jordan takes us behind-the-scenes of Hollywood’s golden days. 📼 🌟Starting with one of its most striking performers: Marilyn Monroe. Throughout her life, Elisa Jordan dedicated her time and research to know the woman behind the unrivaled icon of Hollywood glamour.👄

📖 Exploring Marilyn’s world through Elisa Jordan’s eyes, her own journey comes to light. From her childhood in L.A. to the dedication that led her to write the book ‘Hello Norma Jean’. 🏡 To begin this conversation, Elisa Jordan and I met in front of the house where Marilyn lived and passed away. A home that meant so much to the star, and that Elisa is now fighting to preserve… 👂 Tune in to discover how two women’s lives are interwoven through a unique connection.
