Long have we been told that when there's blood in the water, the shark comes chasing… but what if the shark was really the one bleeding…what if the desperation was not coming so much from the prey, but from the predator?
When Hildi Greenson gifted her late husband's collection of writings, lectures and ephemera to the UCLA Library of Special Collections, it should have been a relatively quiet transaction.
A credit to any archive, some of the contents among the many, many boxes shuttled over from the Greenson residence came one strict proviso…boxes concerning Dr. Ralph Greenson's work with Marilyn Monroe must be sealed until January 1st, 2039.
"Box 39" as it's come to be known - may hold the answers some us are looking for, it may even disclose Greenson's own assessment of what happened that final day. Whatever the reason for sealing up those documents, it's apparent that Hildi Greenson was striving to guard the memory of Monroe her husband tried so hard to preserve.
While all of the players in this tragedy are all gone from this world - the story is far from over.
