Love this pic of Marilyn Monroe, taken during her last photoshoot, just six weeks prior to her death. What a smile! Gorgeous.
She was smart too. IQ 160.

Frequent references have been made to Mansfield's very high IQ, which she claimed as 163.[13] She spoke five languages and was a classically trained pianist and violinist.[14][15] She would later complain that the public did not care about her brains. "They're more interested in 402135", she said
That reminds me of another famous movie actress who was intelligent as well during those times : Jayne Mansfield.

From wiki :
Avant garde composer George Antheil, a son of German immigrants and neighbor of Lamarr, had experimented with automated control of musical instruments, including his music for Ballet Mécanique, originally written for Fernand Léger's 1924 abstract film. This score involved multiple player pianos playing simultaneously.
Lamarr took her idea to Antheil and together, Antheil and Lamarr submitted the idea of a secret communication system in June 1941. On August 11, 1942, US Patent 2,292,387 was granted to Antheil and "Hedy Kiesler Markey", Lamarr's married name at the time. This early version of frequency hopping used a piano roll to change between 88 frequencies and was intended to make radio-guided torpedoes harder for enemies to detect or jam. Although a presentation of the technique was soon made to the U.S. Navy, it met with opposition and was not adopted.[5]
The idea was not implemented in the USA until 1962, when it was used by U.S. military ships during a blockade of Cuba after the patent had expired.
How about Hedy Lamarr?
