Claim: Rosalyn Drexler was a painter and pop artist; she is known mostly for her "Marilyn Pursued By Death" painting of 1963.
Evidence: Although she has had a polymathic career, Drexler is perhaps best known for her pop art paintings and as the author of the novelization of the film Rocky, under the pseudonym Julia Sorel. Marilyn Pursued by Death, 1963 Marilyn Pursued by Death (1967) is an image of Marilyn Monroe being followed by a male figure. Although "Death" appears to be a stalker or member of the paparazzi, the photograph after which the painting was made makes clear that the man is actually her bodyguard.
