Natalie Wood: The Complete Biography (by Suzanne Finstad)

Being a child during Natalie Wood’s celebrity as an actress and then her mysterious death, I was often asked if I was named after her. No, my parents did not name me after Natalie Wood; my mom said she just liked the name. Hearing the name Natalie Wood so frequently had me inquiring about her fame. I was first exposed to her acting in the Christmas movie, Miracle on 34th Street. Then, I learned she died by drowning, and the circumstances of her death were mysterious. Now that I think about it, maybe her suspicious death is what sparked my very first interest in true crime. I recall wanting to know EXACTLY what happened. I’m still like that when it comes to true crime. I want to know all the evidence and the roles of everyone involved. 

I only occasionally thought about Natalie Wood over the past several decades. Mostly, when I saw Christopher Walken in a movie, I wondered what he knew about her death since he was on the boat the night she died. Then one day I’m browsing an Audible sale and discover this book, Natali
