On the 60th anniversary of their wedding, pictures from the day Marilyn Monroe announced she was seeking a divorce from Joe DiMaggio on grounds of mental cruelty.. Marilyn Monroe and baseball legend Joe DiMaggio wed in 1954 (second marriages for both), and were divorced nine months later. That the union was doomed from the beginning was, perhaps, easy to foresee.
Monroe's contract began in August 1946, and she and Lyon selected the stage name Marilyn Monroe. The first name was picked by Lyon, who was reminded of Broadway star Marilyn Miller; the last was picked by Monroe after her mother's maiden name. In September 1946, she divorced Dougherty, who was against her having a career.
