The first Hollywood actress to appear on a U.S. postage stamp was Marilyn Monroe. The stamp was issued on January 15, 1995, as part of the U.S. Postal Service's "Legends of Hollywood" series. The stamp features a photograph of Monroe from the 1953 film "Niagara", and was designed by artist Tom Engeman.
Marilyn Monroe is considered one of the most iconic figures in American popular culture and a major sex symbol of the 1950s. Her image on a postage stamp is a testament to her enduring popularity and influence on American culture.
