PD Photos: The home at Brentwood, Los Angeles, California, where Marilyn Monroe was found dead in 1962.

This is the home where American actress, singer and model Marilyn Monroe (born Norma Jeane Mortenson on June 1, 1926 and died on August 5, 1962) was found dead in 1962. Marilyn Monroe bought the Spanish colonial revival home, a 2,624-square-foot, one-story house built in 1929, featuring four bedrooms, three baths and a swimming pool, in 1962 for $90,000 and lived there until her death. In 2010, Monroe's Brentwood home was put up for sale by Prudential California Realty.
