When the whole world heard about the nude calendar for which Marilyn
had posed, it was Wald who (according to the most spread version)
revealed the information to bring an additional publicity to "Clash by Night".
In 1959 he worked at the Fox. He offered a part to Marilyn in "The Story on Page One", a drama written and directed by Clifford Odets.
Marilyn having refused, he suggested her another project, "Let's Make Love" (1960), she shot under George Cukor's direction.
Telegram from 1960 sent to Marilyn by Jerry Wald; Frankie Vaughan, her partner in "Let's Make Love" felt harmed because his name didn't appear on the recird of the movie songsl; Wald asked Marilyn to reconsider the
case 
Later, he tried, without success, to arouse the star interest for another shooting, "The stripper" (1963), who had to be his last movie.
Among his other productions : "Milfred Pierce" (1945), "Johnny Belinda" (1948), "Peyton Place" (1957) and "Sons and Lovers" (1960).
