Marilyn Monroe was named the sixth greatest female star of all time by the American Film institute, and has been one of the biggest pop and cultural icons for more than half a century.
The then 27-year old actress was filming her movie "River of No Return", but due to an ankle injury she couldn't shoot for several days. Monroe is pictured with her then fiance - Joe DiMaggio. Vachon was the only photographer they formally posed together.
