[Film & Theater] [Monroe, Marilyn. (1926–1962) & Miller, Arthur. (1915–2005)] Schatt, Roy. (1909–2002). Signed 1955 Schatt Photograph. Original horizontal 13 x 8.75 inch silver gelatin photograph of Arthur Miller speaking to Marilyn Monroe in a profile view of each, evidently at a party or function with numerous people in the background. In fine condition with a few light internal bends and the lower left and upper right corners very slightly bent. The verso inscribed “M.M. meets Arthur Miller" as well as name of photographer and copyright of Roy Schatt, the recto signed “Roy Schatt 1955 “ on the bottom middle in ink, though probably printed and signed later by the photographer.
Roy Schatt was an important photographer who is exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, among many other places. He is especially celebrated for his iconic photographs of James Dean, Billie Holiday and Marilyn Monroe.
In May 1955, Monroe started dating playwright Arthur Miller; they had met in Hollywood in 1950 and when Miller discovered she was in New York, he arranged for a mutual friend to reintroduce them. They married on June 29, 1956. In reflecting on his courtship of Monroe, Miller wrote, "She was a whirling light to me then, all paradox and enticing mystery, street-tough one moment, then lifted by a lyrical and poetic sensitivity that few retain past early adolescence."
