Shaw took the picture of Marilyn Monroe standing on a subway grate as her dress is blown above her knees--from The Seven-Year Itch. Shaw (1912-1999) portrayed virtually every major Hollywood star of his day--Marlon Brando (Shaw created the photograph of Brando in a ripped t-shirt for A Streetcar Named Desire), Paul Newman, Audrey Hepburn, Sidney Poitier, Monroe and countless others.
