I want your Photograph--I want it at once--There is no use in your saying you 'will probably send it to me--' I must have it--I cant do without it and I dont intend to do without it--I must have it, if it costs me a trip to [redacted] and a race with Blood hounds to chace you down and then carry you to town with these strong arms and hold you until we can get your darned old phiz in type.

First, to whom was this written?
Second, who was the writer?
First clue: It was not Sandburg.

First - Marilyn Monroe ?
Second - Keya Morgan ?

At the one and only Marilyn Monroe estate auction, held by Christie’s on October 27, 1999, Keya Morgan bought hundreds of items, including much of Marilyn’s private library, with many personally inscribed books. Along with many other items he accumulated over the years, he now possesses the largest Monroe collection in the world, as well as large portions of the estates of her second husband Joe DiMaggio and close friend Marlon Brando.

Not sure if his book was ever published, the movie has been in the works for several years.
