A much smaller moment in history

On this date in 1962, actress Marilyn Monroe sang

Happy Birthday, Mr. President

to U.S. President John F. Kennedy.

The most sultry 'Happy Birthday' song likely ever recorded on film, it has forever linked the names of the late president and actress.

(The dress Ms. Monroe was wearing at that event sold at auction in 1999 for $1.26 million American dollars...)
