Natalie Wood began her acting career at the tender age of 4. Her teenage role in ‘Rebel Without a Cause’ earned an Oscar nomination and marked the start of her decorated journey in Hollywood. Some of her noteworthy performances were in ‘West Side Story’, ‘Gypsy’, and ‘Splendor in the Grass’. Critics consider her career to be a representation of her ‘coming of age’ and of Hollywood films as well.

The actress died ironically in a drowning incident in Catalina Island given that she had a fear of water and drowning.
