Moran signed an exclusive contract with Brown and Bigelow in 1932, and by 1937 his pinups had sold millions of calendars for the company. In 1940, Life ran a feature article entitled "Speaking of Pictures" which mostly focused on Moran's work and made him a celebrity. In 1946, Moran moved to Hollywood and soon after his arrival, he interviewed a young starlet named Norma Jeane Dougherty who wanted to model for him. For the next four years, Marilyn Monroe posed for Moran and the two became friends. Some of the celebrities he painted include: Betty Grable, Joan Crawford, and of course Marilyn Monroe.
