Natalie Wood was a Hollywood child star - with a literal stage mom - and grew up within the system, she became one of the faces of Hollywood’s depiction of the troubled youth, became immortal as Maria in West Side Story and eventually graduated to more dramatic and mature roles. In the mid 1960s she was one of the biggest stars in Hollywood - right along with Elizabeth Taylor and Audrey Hepburn. Her untimely death is still a mystery that will probably never get solved.
