WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? - John R Schroeder - March 1982

John R Schroeder

Natalie Wood dead at 43! It hardly seems possible. I remember her well as the gifted child star of the more tasteful movies of World War II vintage. In due time the schoolchild in pigtails grew into a successful professional actress. The fame and riches of this world were hers. Her marriage to Robert Wagner was one of Hollywood's most noted. From a professional standpoint her roles were consistently good throughout her near 40-year career. She was one of the very few to make the transition from a famous child star to full stardom as an adult actress. Natalie Wood leaves a bereaved husband and two young daughters behind. And all because of an apparent boating accident in a Catalina Island harbor, off the coast of southern California. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
