Monroe continued her relationship with DiMaggio despite the ongoing divorce process; she was also rumored to have dated actor Marlon Brando. Monroe had met playwright Arthur Miller in 1951, after being introduced on the set of As Young as You Feel by director Elia Kazan. Though he was married to Mary Slattery, they began an affair in 1955. The affair became increasingly serious after October 1955, when Monroe's divorce was finalized and Miller separated from Slattery so he could be with Monroe. The studio urged her to end it, as Miller was being investigated by the FBI for allegations of communism and had been subpoenaed by the House Un-American Activities Committee, but Monroe refused. The relationship led to the FBI opening a file on her, as they suspected she was part of a communist group. However, the FBI never uncovered any evidence proving these claims.
