He was a playwright. He was married to Marilyn Monroe. Now go and do some research of your own, because the reason for your homework is not to learn about Arthur Miller, but to learn how to find information on your own.

The artist page of Yahoo! Movie described her as: "A fiery Scots-Yankee known for her intelligence, humor and iron determination, Katharine Hepburn demonstrated remarkable staying power in a screen career that spanned more than six decades, winning three of her four Best Actress Oscars after the age of 60. Credit must go to her extraordinary parents, a noted urologist father, who at great professional risk brought the facts about venereal disease…"\n\n\nOther site described her as: "She was bold, brainy, beautiful, and an independent individual and empowered woman at a time when neither of those things was particularly in fashion, and combined in one person were probably intolerable. First and foremost a movie star, she is also a living legend of the silver screen--an actress who brought her own definitive personality to each role she took on, yet one who always challenged herself artistically and refused to let stereotype or criticism bring her down."\n\nShe has career not only in films, but also in radio, television, and theater (you can see her works at the third link)

Um, was it Marlene Dietrich?  For some reason, she seems to fit the bill . . .\n\nIf not, then I'm going with Katherine Hepburn, like everyone else.\n\nP.S. These questions are fun!  I feel like I'm on some GLBT-themed Jeopardy!

I have done some pretty extensive research on this, and unfortunately, there is no info available about her.  I even checked out some old questions on here about this, and nobody was ever able to find out her identity.  Sorry!

Well, I'd agree with chit-chat to some extent, but actually, a lot of men wouldn't agree with chit-chat at all, and it's all a matter of opinion.  There's no doubt in my mind that she is viewed as a ditzy sex-symbol (if you couldnt' tell from those commercials with the buffalo-wings for ditzyness and those pizza hut commercials for sex-symbolishness-> lol, miss piggy trying to save kermit and her's relationship lol!) not unlike Marilyn Monroe. but I digress, the main point is that personally, I find michelle branch, selma hayek, mandy moore to be much prettier, just based on their less stereotypically tan-look and deeper, more meaningful look/aura about them haha

Marilyn Monroe personified Hollywood glamour with an unparalleled glow and energy that enamored the world. Although she was an alluring beauty with voluptuous curves and a generous pout, Marilyn was more than a '50s sex goddess. Her apparent vulnerability and innocence, in combination with an innate sensuality, has endeared her to the global consciousness. She dominated the age of movie stars to become, without question, the most famous woman of the 20th Century.\n\nShe was born Norma Jeane Mortenson on June 1, 1926 in Los Angeles, California, to Gladys Baker. As the identity of her father is undetermined, she was later baptized Norma Jeane Baker. Gladys had been a film cutter at RKO studios, but psychological problems prevented her from keeping the job and she was eventually committed to a mental institution. \n\nNorma Jeane spent most of her childhood in foster homes and orphanages until 1937, when she moved in with family friend Grace McKee Goddard. Unfortunately, when Grace's husband was transferred to the East Coast in 1942, the couple couldn't afford to take 16-year-old Norma Jeane with them. Norma Jeane had two options: return to the orphanage or get married. \n\nOn June 19, 1942 she wed her 21-year-old neighbor Jimmy Dougherty, whom she had been dating for six months. "She was a sweet, generous and religious girl," Jimmy said. "She liked to be cuddled." By all accounts Norma Jeane loved Jimmy, and they were happy together until he joined the Merchant Marines and was sent to the South Pacific in 1944.

It probably started with Clara Bow, of the silent era films mostly, although she did do some talkies as they were called. However she was afraid of the microphones they used then and wasn't' that successful.\nShe was a very beautiful young woman, with loads of charm and a certain sexiness to her, innocent and sweet. But in those times, that wasn't the norm.\nThere have been several since then, one it seems in every decade. Marilyn Monroe from the fifties.\nSo you are in good company, and that's one heck of a compliment.\nSmile and enjoy it.
