Lana Wood Biography
Biography
The younger sister of actress
Natalie Wood,
Lana Wood made her first film appearance at age ten, playing
Natalie as a child in
John Ford's classic Western
The Searchers (1956). It would be nearly a decade before
Lana began her performing career in earnest, co-starring in the 20th Century Fox TV series
The Long, Hot Summer (1965) and
Peyton Place (1966-1967 season) as, respectively, Eula Harker and Sandy Webber. Projecting a sexier image than sister
Natalie,
Lana was supremely suited for such film roles as Plenty O'Toole in the 1970 James Bond flick
Diamonds Are Forever. She later essayed the more sedate characterization of middle-aged matron Fran Burke in the CBS daytime drama
Capitol. In 1985,
Lana Wood published the biographical Natalie: A Memoir.
