1953- Marilyn Monroe was in Jasper ( Canada ) to film River of No Return, co-starring Robert Mitchum.
While Marilyn was here, Jasper photographer Ray O'Neil ( I picture is taken by Alan Snyder)managed to get a photo shoot with her. The result was a series of classic photos, some of which can now be obtained in Jasper's stores, especially Jasper Photography.
“She was here for most of the month of August [filming River of No Return] and then they went down to Banff and shot a few more scenes,” said the museum’s Val Delill. During that time many Jasperites had unforgettable Monroe encounters, which are captured in “Remembering Marilyn.”
“I have three stories from the same event and none of them are the same because our memories are so different,” said Delill. “What we’re trying to do is show people’s memories and it’s OK that people don’t have the same memory of the same event.”
One of the recorded memories is from then-warden Frank Camp, who shares a story about another warden, Bob Jones, and his coffee “date” with Monroe. As recorded in Camp’s book Roots in the Rockies, Jones was at the Devona Cabin during filming and one day invited Monroe to the cabin for coffee.
When drinking the coffee, she left a red lipstick imprint on the cup. Afterwards, Jones placed it, unwashed on the window sill and “from then on, it was look but don’t touch.”
