Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller Dance at 'April in Paris' Ball

The movie star and her playwright husband dance at a ball at New York's Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in April 1957. Years later, Miller's friend, director Elia Kazan, would recall introducing the two at a Hollywood party in 1951, when she was dating Kazan. "Art was a good dancer. And how happy she was in his arms." (See more of Monroe and Miller's romance in pictures.)
