Natalie Wood was one of few actresses who managed to make the successful transition from child star to A-lister. She debuted on-screen at the age of eight in Miracle on 34th Street as the precocious Susan Walker; in the blink of an eye, Wood had blossomed into a stunning ingenue. Then, on November 29, 1981, her body was found floating in the Pacific Ocean.
