Family and early life - 5

Grace and her husband were about to move East and could not take Norma Jeane.
Another family wanted to adopt Norma Jeane, but Gladys would not allow it.
Grace then approached a neighbor suggesting that her son, James Dougherty, could marry Norma Jeane so that she would not have to return to an orphanage or foster care, and in June 1942, they were married.
Monroe would state in her autobiography that she did not feel like a wife; she enjoyed playing with the neighborhood children until her husband would call her home.
The marriage lasted until 1946 when Monroe decided to pursue her career.

Family and early life - 4

After Grace McKee married Ervin Silliman Goddard in 1935, the 9 year-old Monroe was sent to the Los Angeles Orphans Home, (later renamed Hollygrove), and then to a succession of foster homes.
Two years later Grace took Norma Jeane back to live with herself, Goddard and one of Goddard's daughters from a previous marriage.
When Goddard tried to molest Norma Jeane, Grace sent her to live with her great aunt, Olive Brunings.
Norma Jeane was assaulted by one of Olive's sons at the age of 12 and then went on to live with Grace's aunt, Ana Lower.
When Ana developed health problems, Norma Jeane went back to live with Grace & Ervin Goddard, where she met a neighbor's son, Jim Dougherty, and soon began a relationship with him.

Family and early life - 3

During one of her weekly visits, Gladys told Norma Jeane that she had bought a house for them, and Norma Jeane was allowed to move in with her mother.
A few months after moving in, Gladys suffered a breakdown.
In My Story, Monroe recalls her mother "screaming and laughing", as she was forcibly removed to the State Hospital in Norwalk. Monroe was declared a ward of the state, and Gladys's best friend, Grace McKee, became her guardian.
It was Grace that had told Monroe that someday she would become "...an important woman... a movie star".
Grace was captivated by Jean Harlow, and would let Norma Jeane wear makeup and take her out to get her hair curled.
They would go to the movies together, forming the basis for Norma Jeane's fascination with the cinema and the stars on screen.
