"The magazine Paris Match (N.226 July 1953) offered for the first time Marilyn Monroe on cover to illustrate a long story about the Hollywood film industry, titled "Will Cinema disappear?", written by reporter Raymond Cartier with inside a long article on 15 pages entitled "Hollywood struggles to survive" (
against emerging TV).
In the article, new young Hollywood starlets are shown on 2 pages: "Every studio puts his hope in a young star" with five portraits : Ursula Thiess (RKO), Marilyn Monroe (FOX), Elaine Stewart (MGM) Lori Nelson (UNIVERSAL) and Joanne Gilbert (PARAMOUNT)."
