  MARILYN MONROE 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
    
  CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
    
  Marilyn Monroe, born Norma Jeane Mortenson, was an American actress and model, becoming a 1950s sex symbol known for her "blonde bombshell" persona. Her early life was spent in foster homes and an orphanage. She began a successful modeling career before transitioning into acting, landing roles in comedies and dramas. Monroe's personal life, including marriages to Joe DiMaggio and Arthur Miller, was heavily publicized. She struggled with the studio system, seeking roles that showcased more than her sex appeal. Her death at 36 from a barbiturate overdose was ruled a probable suicide. Monroe remains a pop culture icon, though her acting abilities are debated. 
    
  CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
    
  Marilyn Monroe's birth name was Norma Jeane Mortenson, and she was born on June 1, 1926, in Los Angeles, California. She spent much of her childhood in foster homes and an orphanage.  
    
  Monroe's mother, Gladys Pearl Baker, had a history of mental health issues and was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, which resulted in Monroe becoming a ward of the state. Monroe was not told that she had a sister until she was 12 years old.  
    
  At the age of 16, Monroe married James Dougherty to avoid returning to an orphanage, and she dropped out of high school to become a housewife. Though the marriage was initially described as happy, Monroe later said she was "dying of boredom".  
    
  During World War II, Monroe worked in a factory and began a successful pin-up modeling career, which led to film contracts. A photographer from the First Motion Picture Unit is who she met at the factory.

  History of Christianity: An...

  It is the largest faith in the world, spans the globe, and stretches back in time nearly two thousand years. We are, of course, talking about Christianity.  
  Today, the dominance of the Christian faith appears to be a readily accepted fact. But back when it first rose to prominence, for most outside observers, such an idea would have seemed highly unlikely.  
  From its inception, Christianity was persecuted and hounded. Christians often paid a high price for their faith. They met underground and even in graveyards. They were misunderstood, and their message to outsiders seemed hopelessly strange and muddled. Back then, no one could have imagined that this “cult,” which often met in secret, small groups, would one day have huge churches and an even larger global presence. 
  Yet, despite the odds, Christianity proved to be unstoppable. How did such a thing happen? From the perspective of a believer, the answer to that question is quite clear: the divine hand of God was at work. But even if one does not subscribe to the Christian faith, there are certain aspects of Christianity that stand out and can be used as mile-markers as to how and why Christianity came to take such a prominent place in world history. 
  This audiobook takes a look at the full history of Christianity, from its earliest days as a persecuted sect to its acceptance and formalization at the Council of Nicaea to the Middle Ages, the Enlightenment, and the subsequent modern age.  
  In this audiobook, you will learn about the following:The origins of Christianity and why people flocked to the religionThe life and ministry of JesusThe first Christian disciplesThe early Christian ChurchThe Council of Nicaea and the momentous impact it had on Christian historyAnd a whole lot more!
