1962年7月，玛丽莲·梦露接受了《生活》杂志记者理查德·梅里曼的采访，这也是她生前最后一次访谈，同时她还为摄影师艾伦·格兰特完成了最后一次正式写真拍摄。就在这篇报道发表后不久，梦露便与世长辞，而格兰特拍摄的绝大多数照片以及梅里曼录制的采访录音，从此尘封不为人知。
如今，杰森·格林与克里斯·弗拉纳里整理了梅里曼的完整采访 transcript 以及格兰特的摄影作品，集结为《玛丽莲：遗失的照片，最后的访谈》（威尔登·欧文出版社出版）。在这本书中，梦露坦诚地讲述了自己的人生、好莱坞、名人身份以及制片厂制度带来的种种挑战。
以下为节选内容，千万不要错过特雷西·史密斯为纪念玛丽莲·梦露诞辰百年制作的《哥伦比亚广播公司周日早间》专题报道，播出时间为5月31日！
《玛丽莲：遗失的照片，最后的访谈》
关于名望
我不认为自己是名人。真正重要的是你做了什么。同时，你也会通过与他人的联结来定义自我——就像和普通人打成一片那样。平时我怎么舒服怎么穿，但当身处人群、可能会被认出来的时候，我就会更留意着装，为场合精心打扮一番。有些时候，我觉得公众应该看到我最好的一面。我不会像个疯丫头一样到处乱跑。我不想让任何人失望，也不想辜负他们的期待。幻想对人们来说很重要，所以我会从这个角度去考虑这些事。
有时候我会围上围巾、穿上马球外套，不施粉黛，带着随性的步态出门购物，或是只是看看普通人的生活。但你知道，总会有几个眼尖的年轻人，他们会说：“嘿，等一下。你知道我觉得那是谁吗？”然后他们就会跟在我后面。我并不介意。我明白有些人只是想确认你是不是真实存在的。那些青少年，小朋友们，他们的眼睛会亮起来。他们会说：“哇，”然后迫不及待地要去告诉自己的朋友。年长的人会走过来说：“等着，我要告诉我妻子。”你已经让他们一整天都心情愉悦了。每天早上，当我从公寓出来路过五十七街的时候，垃圾清运工都会打招呼：“玛丽莲，嗨！你今天感觉怎么样？”对我来说，这是一种荣耀，我很感激他们。碰到工人的时候，我路过他们身边，他们会吹口哨。一开始他们吹口哨只是因为看到是个女孩，金发，身材匀称，然后他们会说：“天啊，那是玛丽莲·梦露！”那种时刻……你懂的，那些时刻真的很美好。人们认出了你，感受到你对他们来说意义非凡。

In July 1962, Marilyn Monroe gave what would be her final interview, with Life Magazine writer Richard Meryman, and her last formal photo shoot, for photographer Allan Grant. She died shortly after the article was published, and the majority of Grant’s photos, and the recordings made by Meryman, have remained unseen and unheard ever since.
Now, Jason Greene and Chris Flannery have compiled Meryman’s complete interview transcript and Grant’s images for “Marilyn: The Lost Photographs, The Last Interview” (Weldon Owen), in which the star speaks candidly about her life, Hollywood, celebrity, and the challenges of the studio system.

On fame
I DON’T THINK OF MYSELF AS FAMOUS. What counts is what you do. It’s also what you identify yourself with—like with the people. Normally I just wear whatever, but when I’m in a crowd and I’m going to be recognized, I’m more careful the way I dress. I mean, more carefully dressed for the occasion. There are certain times I feel that the public should see me at my best. I’m not going to go running around like a dog. I feel I wouldn’t want to let anybody down and I wouldn’t want to disappoint them. Fantasy is important for people, and so I think in that way.
Sometimes wearing a scarf and a polo coat and no makeup and with a certain attitude of walking, I go shopping or just look at people living. But then, you know, there will be a few teenagers who are kind of sharp, and they’ll say, “Hey, just a minute. You know who I think that is?” And they’ll start tailing me. And I don’t mind. I realize some people want to see if you’re real. The teenagers, the little kids, their faces light up. They say, “Gee,” and they can’t wait to tell their friends. Old people come up and say, “Wait till I tell my wife.” You’ve changed their whole day. In the morning, the garbagemen that go by Fifty-Seventh Street when I come out the door say, “Marilyn, hi! How do you feel this morning?” To me, it’s an honor, and I love them for it. The workingmen, I’ll go by and they’ll whistle. At first they whistle because they think, oh, it’s a girl. She’s got blonde hair and she’s not out of shape, and then they say, “Gosh, it’s Marilyn Monroe!” And that has its . . . you know, those are times it’s nice. People knowing who you are and all of that, and feeling that you’ve meant something to them.”
