Wood began appearing in movies when she was 5 years old, had parts in successful Hollywood films and unlike many child actors made the difficult transition to adult roles, most notably in ''[[Rebel Without a Cause]]'' (1955) and ''[[West Side Story (film)|West Side Story]]'' (1961). By age 25 she was a three-time [[Academy Awards|Oscar]] nominee for ''[[Rebel Without a Cause]]'', ''[[Splendor in the Grass]]'' and ''[[Love with the Proper Stranger|Love With the Proper Stranger]]''. After her untimely death ''[[Time (magazine)|Time]]'' magazine noted that although critical praise for Wood had been sparse throughout her career, "she always had work."<ref name="Time-1981-12-14">[http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,925095,00.html "The last hours of Natalie Wood"]. - ''[[Time (magazine)|TIME]]''. - [[14 December]] [[1981]]</ref> ==Child actor== Wood's parents Nikolai and Maria Zakharenko were [[Russians|Russian]] immigrants, but they grew up far from their homeland: her father lived in [[Vancouver, British Columbia]], [[Canada]], while her mother grew up in a [[China|Chinese]] province. Shortly after her birth in San Francisco they moved north to [[Sonoma County]] and lived in [[Santa Rosa, California]] where Wood was noticed during a film shoot in downtown Santa Rosa. Her mother soon moved the family to Los Angeles and pursued a career for her daughter. By age four Natalia was being billed as ''Natasha Gurdin''. Like many parents of child actors her mother tightly managed and controlled the young girl's career and personal life. Her father has been described by Wood's biographers as a passive [[alcoholic]]. As a seven year old, Wood played a German orphan opposite [[Orson Welles]] and [[Claudette Colbert]] in ''[[Tomorrow Is Forever]]''. Welles later said that Wood was a born professional, "so good, she was terrifying".<ref name=OConnerJ-NYT->O'Conner, John J. - Arts: [http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=940DE1DB1431F93BA35754C0A96E948260 " TV Weekend; A Documentary Remembrance of Natalie Wood"]. - ''[[New York Times]]''. - July 8, 1988</ref> Her performance in the 1947 Christmas classic ''[[Miracle on 34th Street]]'' made Wood one of the top child stars in Hollywood. She would appear on over 20 films as a child, appearing opposite such stars as [[James Stewart]], [[Bette Davis]] and [[Bing Crosby]]. Her sister [[Lana Wood]] also became an actress and later, notably, a [[Bond girl]]. They had another sister, Olga. ==Adult Career== Wood successfully made the transition from child star to ingenue at age 16 when she co-starred in [[Nicholas Ray]]'s ''[[Rebel Without a Cause]]'' with [[James Dean]], [[Sal Mineo]] and [[Dennis Hopper]]. Her performance won her an [[Academy Awards|Oscar]] nomination for Best Supporting Actress. She followed this with a small but crucial role in [[John Ford]]'s ''[[The Searchers]]'' opposite [[John Wayne]]. Her sister, Lana played her as a child in the film's earlier scenes. She graduated from Van Nuys High School in 1955. Signed to [[Warner Brothers]], Wood was kept busy during the remainder of the 1950's in many 'girlfriend' roles that she found unsatisfying. The studio cast her in two films opposite [[Tab Hunter]], hoping to turn the duo into a box office draw that never eventuated. Among the other films made at this time were ''[[Kings Go Forth]]'' with [[Frank Sinatra]] and the title role in ''[[Marjorie Morningstar (film)|Marjorie Morningstar]]''. After appearing in the box office flop, ''[[All the Fine Young Cannibals]]'' with then husband, [[Robert Wagner]], Wood's career was salvaged by her casting in Elia Kazan's ''[[Splendor in the Grass]]'' in 1961 which earned her Best Actress Nominations at the [[Academy Awards]], [[Golden Globes]] and [[BAFTA Awards]]. Also in 1961 Wood played Maria in the [[Jerome Robbins]] and [[Robert Wise]] musical ''[[West Side Story (film)|West Side Story]]'' which was a major box office and critical success. She had been signed to do her own singing but was later dubbed by session singer [[Marni Nixon]]. Wood's own singing voice was used when she starred in the 1962 film ''[[Gypsy (1962 film)|Gypsy]]'' and she also sang in the slapstick comedy ''[[The Great Race]]'' (1965) co-starring [[Jack Lemmon]] and [[Tony Curtis]]. Wood received her third [[Academy Award]] nomination (and another [[Golden Globe]] nod) in 1963 for ''[[Love with the Proper Stranger]]'' opposite [[Steve McQueen]]. Although many of Wood's films were commercially profitable her acting was often criticized. In 1966 she won the [[Harvard Lampoon]] Worst Actress of the Year Award. She was the first performer in the award's history to accept it in person and the [[Harvard Crimson]] wrote she was "quite a good sport."<ref>Alexander, Jeffrey C. - [http://www.thecrimson.com/article.aspx?ref=493919 "Lampoon Fixes Date With Natalie; Wood Will Win 'Worst' on Saturday"]. - ''[[Harvard Crimson]]''. - [[18 April]] [[1966]]</ref> Other notable films Wood made during this period were ''[[Inside Daisy Clover]]'' and ''[[This Property Is Condemned]]'', both of which co-starred [[Robert Redford]] and both bringing subsequent [[Golden Globe]] nominations for Best Actress. After appearing in the hit film ''[[Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice]]'' Wood semi-retired to start a family with her second husband Richard Gregson but their marriage ended in divorce a short time later. She appeared in occasional theatrical films during the 1970's, preferring roles in TV Movies, including a remake of ''[[From Here To Eternity]]'' that won her a [[Golden Globe]] for Best Actress. At the time of her death, Wood was filming the sci-fi film ''[[Brainstorm]]'' with [[Christopher Walken]]. ==Relationships== Biographer [[Suzanne Finstad]] claimed Wood slept with director [[Nicholas Ray]] while she was trying to land the lead role in what became her breakthrough picture, Ray's ''Rebel Without a Cause.''<ref name="FinstadS">Finstad, Suzanne (2001). ''Natasha: The Biography of Natalie Wood''. Three Rivers Press. ISBN 0-609-80957-1.</ref><ref name="ForanC">Foran, Chris. - "Natalie Wood deserved a better ending". - ''[[Milwaukee Journal Sentinel]]''. - [[31 July]] [[2001]].</ref> Meanwhile [[Dennis Hopper]] was publicly involved with Wood and reportedly made an unannounced visit only to discover her in bed with Ray.<ref name=RathgebD>Rathgeb, Douglas L. (2004). ''The Making of Rebel Without a Cause'' McFarland & Company. ISBN 0-7864-1976-8.</ref> Biographer [[Gavin Lambert]] claimed both Ray and James Dean helped renew Wood's passion for acting after roles in lackluster movies like ''Chicken Every Sunday'', ''Dear Brat'' and ''Father Was a Fullback''. Wood also had highly publicized relationships with actors [[Raymond Burr]], [[Dennis Hopper]], [[Warren Beatty]], [[Nick Adams (actor)|Nick Adams]], [[Tab Hunter]], [[Michael Caine]] and Scott Marlowe, along with singer [[Elvis Presley]]. However, Lambert writes that contrary to popular belief, Wood's casting in ''[[Rebel Without a Cause]]'' did not lead to a romance with co-star [[James Dean]]: "Like many people," she was only "fascinated by his charm."<ref name=LambertG>Lambert, Gavin (2004). ''Natalie Wood: A Life''. London: Faber and Faber. ISBN 0571221971.</ref> In fact, the teenaged Wood went on studio-arranged dates, often with closeted gay actors. In [[1956]], one of these was [[Tab Hunter]] who was seven years older than her and with whom she developed a lasting friendship. They attended parties to promote films they co-starred in that year, ''The Burning Hills'' and ''The Girl He Left Behind''. In his autobiography, Hunter tells how highly publicized, sham Hollywood romances were a marketing strategy meant to stir up interest in forthcoming films among the newly influential teenaged girl market.<ref name=HunterT>Hunter, Tab, with Eddie Muller (2005). ''Tab Hunter Confidential: The Making of a Movie Star''. Chapel Hill, North Carolina: Algonquin Books. ISBN 1565124669</ref> Wood's long relationship with [[Nick Adams]], according to Lambert another "gay or bisexual actor," also began with such a "studio-arranged date."<ref name=LambertG /><ref>Hollywood expert [[John Gregory Dunne]] confirms that Adams was bisexual. ''Regards: The Selected Nonfiction of John Gregory Dunne'' (2005), p.242. | The only writer who didn't believe that Adams was "gay or bisexual" is journalist Bill Kelly. See [http://www.cybersleuths.com/features/features2a.html "The Unsolved Death of Nick Adams"], Retrieved 5 December 2007.</ref> In his biography of gay Hollywood agent [[Henry Willson]], Robert Hofler deals with the rise of the studio star system, in which several gay actors dated girls in order to cover their homosexuality. "In the Henry Willson date pool, Nick Adams was one client, among many, who glommed on to Natalie Wood to get his picture taken."<ref>Hofler, Robert (2005). ''The Man Who Invented Rock Hudson: The Pretty Boys and Dirty Deals of Henry Willson'' New York, New York: Carroll & Graf. p.205. ISBN 078671607X</ref> According to Lambert and his reviewer David Ehrenstein, Wood also financially supported homosexual playwright [[Mart Crowley]] in a manner that made it possible for him to write his play, ''[[The Boys in the Band (play)|The Boys in the Band]]''.<ref>[http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1589/is_2004_March_16/ai_n6023733 Ehrenstein's review of Lambert's Wood biography] in ''[[The Advocate]]'', - March 16, 2004. Suzanne Finstad confirms that Mart Crowley worked for Wood and her husband Wagner "for many years", adding that she "also hired his boyfriend."</ref> Concerning a possible relationship between Wood and homosexual actor [[Raymond Burr]], 21 years her senior, Wood's biographer, [[Suzanne Finstad]], cites [[Dennis Hopper]] as saying, "I just can't wrap my mind around that one. But you know, I saw them together. They were definitely a couple. Who knows what was going on there." However, "the studio pressured Wood and Raymond to break up their romance", Burr biographer Ona L. Hill writes, "because they wanted to keep Wood's sweet, all-American girl image. ... Deeply hurt by this command, they parted as friends..."<ref>Hill, Ona L. (2000). ''Raymond Burr: A Film, Radio and Television Biography''. Jefferson, North Carolina: McFarland. p.56. ISBN 0786408332</ref> ===Robert Wagner=== Natalie Wood's two marriages to actor [[Robert Wagner]] were highly publicized. As newlyweds in 1958 the couple was asked to hand out Oscar trophies at that year's [[Academy Awards]] ceremony. Four years later Wood sought a divorce telling the judge Wagner spent a lot of time playing golf and regularly criticized her friends, who did not play golf.<ref>''[[Washington Post]]''. - April 28, 1962. - p.B11.</ref> The breakup may have had more to do with the stress of financial worries and Wagner's lagging career.<ref>[http://www.meninmovies.com/robert_wagner.html ''Robert Wagner Filmography'']. Men in Movies. Retrieved 13 January 2008</ref> Decades later one biographer claimed Wood ended her first marriage to Wagner in 1962 after she caught him "in a compromising position with another man"<ref name="FinstadS"/><ref name="ForanC"/> although statements made by Wood in divorce court and to the press made no hint at such an allegation. Wagner has said the story is untrue. Wood and Wagner remarried in 1972. ==Death== In September and October 1981, Wood and Wagner stayed in [[Raleigh, North Carolina]] while Wood did location work for the science-fiction film ''[[Brainstorm (1983 film)|Brainstorm]]''.<ref name="ThackreyT-LAT">Thackrey, Ted Jr., - "Actress Natalie Wood Dies." - ''[[Los Angeles Times]]''. - [[30 November]] [[1981]].</ref> Wood then spent most of November in California shooting interior scenes with [[Christopher Walken]] and other cast members on the [[MGM]] lot in Culver City.<ref name="ThackreyT-LAT" /> After Thanksgiving, Wood, Wagner and Walken went on to [[Santa Catalina Island, California|Catalina Island]] for the weekend and on Saturday night their yacht (''Splendor'') was anchored in Isthmus Cove. Also on board was the boat's skipper, Dennis Davern, who had worked for the couple for many years. Wood apparently tried to either leave the yacht or secure a [[dinghy]] from banging against the hull when she accidentally slipped and fell overboard. A woman on a nearby yacht said she heard calls for help at around midnight. The cries lasted for about 15 minutes and were answered by someone else who said, "Take it easy. We'll be over to get you".<ref name="Time-1981-12-14" /> "It was laid back," the witness recalled. "There was no urgency or immediacy in their shouts".<ref name="Time-1981-12-14" /> An investigation by [[Los Angeles County]] coroner [[Thomas Noguchi]] resulted in an official verdict of accidental drowning. Noguchi concluded Wood had drunk "seven or eight" glasses of wine and was intoxicated when she died. There were marks and bruises on her body which could have been received as a result of her fall.<ref name="Time-1981-12-14" /> Noguchi later wrote had Wood not been intoxicated she likely would have realized her heavy down-filled coat and wool sweater were pulling her underwater and would have removed them.<ref>Noguchi, Thomas T. (1983). ''Coroner''. New York, New York: Simon & Schuster. ISBN 0671467727.</ref> Noguchi also wrote that he found Wood's fingernails embedded in the rubber boat's side. At the time of her death at the age of 43, Wood was scheduled to make her stage debut in an [[Ahmanson Theatre]] production of ''Anastasia'' with [[Wendy Hiller|Dame Wendy Hiller]]. Rehearsals were planned to begin in December. ''[[Brainstorm (1983 film)|Brainstorm]]'' was released in theaters two years later (missing at least one unfilmed scene meant for Wood) and was neither a critical nor a commercial success. Natalie Wood is buried in [[Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery]]. ==Appearances and awards== ===Filmography=== {| border="2" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" style="margin: 1em 1em 1em 0; background: #f9f9f9; border: 1px #aaa solid; border-collapse: collapse; font-size: 90%;" |- bgcolor="#CCCCCC" align="center" !
