Fri. 12:06 ET-Today we recognize “celebrity” and “actor” as two separate vocations – many instantly recognizable celebrities have few acting credits. Marilyn Monroe was both, and may be the most successful ever at doing both at once. This week, Leigh Rich and P. T. Bridgeport chat with Amanda Konkle, author of Some Kind Of Mirror: Creating Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn was a deft actress, both on the set and especially, in the role of a celebrity. Yet because of her celebrity role, many downplay her skills as a cinema actress. How good was she really? Dr. Konkle will cover those subjects and more. Join us. 05/03/2019
