"America watched Natalie Wood grow up on the silver screen. Her childhood is still
there to see in Miracle on 34th Street. Her adolescence in Rebel Without a Cause.
Her coming of age? Still playing in Splendor in the Grass and West Side Story and
countless other timeless movies. From the moment Natalie Wood made her cinematic debut
in 1946 in Tomorrow Is Forever, to her shocking, untimely death in 1981, the decades
of her life are punctuated by movies that even today, reside in the hearts and imagination
of the American people. Acclaimed novelist, biographer, critic and screenwriter Gavin
Lambert, whose twenty-year friendship with Natalie Wood began when she starred in
the movie adaptation of his novel Inside Daisy Clover, recounts her extraordinary
story. He relays to us details about her personal life, from her love affairs to her
suicide attempt at twenty-six, the birth of her children to her friendships, her struggles
as an actress to finally, her tragic and mysterious death at the age of forty-three.
For the first time, everyone who was close to Natalie Wood speaks freely -- including
her husbands, Robert Wagner and Richard Gregson, famously private people like Warren
Beatty, intimate friends such as playwright Mart Crowley, directors Robert Mulligan
and Paul Mazursky, and Leslie Caron, each of whom told the author stories about this
remarkable woman who was so full of life but always on the brink of despair."--back
