Natalie and R.J

This biography follows the relationship of Natalie Wood and Robert Wagner, two of Hollywood's best-known names, from the studio era of their early careers to the final hours of Wood's life. It begins with a young actress who had already become a star as a child, and with the teenage R.J. she first noticed when he was a promising eighteen-year-old. Their first marriage was marked by public gossip, the fallout from Natalie's romance with another star, and a divorce. The couple later remarried, and the book traces the affairs, rivalries and personal crises that tested their bond. It also covers the mysterious circumstances of Wood's death.
