　　Natalie Wood was always a star; her mother made sure this was

true. A superstitious Russian immigrant who claimed to be royalty,

Maria had been told by a gypsy, long before little Natasha

Zakharenko's birth, that her second child would be famous

throughout the world. When the beautiful child with the hypnotic

eyes was first placed in Maria's arms, she knew the prophecy would

become true and proceeded to do everything in her power —

everything — to make sure of it.

Natasha is the haunting story of a vulnerable and talented

actress whom many of us felt we knew. We watched her mature on the

movie screen before our eyes — in Miracle on 34th Street, Rebel

Without a Cause, West Side Story, Splendor in the Grass, and on and

on. She has been hailed — along with Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth

Taylor — as one of the top three female movie stars in the history

of film, making her a legend in her own lifetime and beyond. But

the story of what Natalie endured, of what her life was like when

the doors of the soundstages closed, has long been obscured.

Natasha is based on years of exhaustive research into Natalie's

turbulent life and mysterious drowning in the dark water that was

her greatest fear. Author Suzanne Finstad, a former lawyer,

conducted nearly four hundred interviews with Natalie's family,

close friends, legendary costars, lovers, film crews, and virtually

everyone connected with the investigation of her strange death.

Through these firsthand accounts from many who have never spoken

publicly before, Finstad has reconstructed a life of emotional

abuse and exploitation, of almost unprecedented fame, great

loneliness, poignancy, and loss. She sheds an unwavering light on

Natalie's complex relationships with James Dean, Elvis Presley,

Frank Sinatra, Raymond Burr, Warren Beatty, and Robert Wagner and

reveals the two lost loves of Natalie's life, whom her controlling

mother prevented her from marrying. Finstad tells this beauty's

heartbreaking story with sensitivity and grace, revealing a complex

and conflicting mix of fragility and strength in a woman who was

swept along by forces few could have resisted. Natasha is

impossible to put down — it is the definitive biography of Natalie

Wood that we've long been waiting for.
