If you guessed Marilyn Monroe, then you're right! It's like the blonde beauty was born for the camera.

This smiling image of the adorable Norma Jeane Baker certainly masks the actress's troubled childhood. Born in 1926, the California kid was shuffled between foster homes, became a high school drop-out, and later divorced, all before age 21. Even at such a young age, however, all of Norma Jeane's troubles melt away in front of the photographer's lens like the flawless Marilyn Monroe of the silver screen.
