History Thru The Lens

Welcome to my blog site!

My interests in history and photography come together in this photoblog. Featured in this blog are historical pictures such as the above photo of the RMS Olympic and her sister ship the RMS Titanic, which would prove to be the last one of them together side by side. Hopefully all who visit will enjoy it and recommend the site to their friends.

Natalie Wood


Whatever happened to Natalie Wood? Her family recently have requested that the case involving her mysterious death be reopened.

Born Natalia Zacharenko on July 20, 1938, the American actress met with an untimely death at the age of 43 on November 29, 1981, when she apparently fell off her boat and presumably drowned because of her inability to swim.

Wood had apparently been arguing with her husband, actor Robert Wagner, aboard the vessel the night prior to her body being discovered floating in the water a mile away.
                                            
Natalie Wood will be remembered for her appearance in such movies as the 1947 Christmas classic "Miracle on 34th Street", and "Rebel Without a Cause", where she starred at the age of 16. Natalie Wood is pictured here at the age of 15 in 1953.
