She Was Photographed For the First Time
During the war, Norma Jeane also started to work on an assembly line in a defense plant. She strived for perfection in her job as a glue sprayer and earned herself a certificate for excellence, much to the envy of her coworkers. It was at this job that Norma was first photographed for a magazine. These photos were later sent to the owner of a modeling agency, who soon signed Norma as a model, which eventually caused a rift in her marriage.
