Russell Irving "Russ" Tamblyn (born December 30, 1934) is an American film and television actor and dancer, who is best known for his performance in title role of the 1958 Tom Thumb and the 1961 movie musical West Side Story as Riff, the leader of the Jets gang. He is also known for appearing in such films as Seven Brides For Seven Brothers, The War of the Gargantuas, Peyton Place and The Haunting, as well as for his portrayal of Dr. Lawrence Jacoby in the television drama Twin Peaks.
Tamblyn was born in Los Angeles, California, the son of actors Sally Aileen (Triplett) (1912-1995) and Eddie Tamblyn (Edward Francis Tamblyn) (1908-1957). He is the older brother of Larry Tamblyn, organist for the 1960s band The Standells.
Discovered at the age of ten by actor Lloyd Bridges after acting in a play, Tamblyn's first film appearance was a small non-speaking role in 1948's The Boy With Green Hair. He also appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show as a child.
Tamblyn then portrayed the young Saul in Cecil B. DeMille's 1949 version of Samson and Delilah. He played the younger version of John Dall's character in the 1950 film noir Gun Crazy. Later the same year, he had a minor role as Elizabeth Taylor's younger brother in Father of the Bride, as well as in the sequel, released the following year, Father's Little Dividend. He also played a young soldier in boot camp in 1953's Take the High Ground!.
Rita Dolores Moreno (born December 11, 1931) is a Puerto Rican actress and singer. She is one of the twelve performers to have won all four major annual American entertainment awards, which include an Oscar, an Emmy, a Grammy and a Tony, and was the second Puerto Rican to win an Oscar.
Moreno, nicknamed "Rosita", was born Rosa Dolores Alverío in Humacao, Puerto Rico, to Rosa María (née Marcano), a seamstress, and Francisco José "Paco" Alverío, a farmer. Moreno, whose mother was 17 at the time of her birth, was raised in nearby Juncos. Rita's mother moved to New York City in 1936, taking her daughter, but not her son, Rita's younger brother, Francisco. Rita would later adopt the surname of her first stepfather, Edward Moreno, Rosa Maria's second husband, by whom Rita would have a younger stepbrother, Dennis Moreno, who died in a car crash.
Rita began her first dancing lessons soon after arriving in New York with a Spanish dancer known as "Paco Cansino", who was a paternal uncle of film star Rita Hayworth. When she was 11 years old, she lent her voice to Spanish language versions of American films. She had her first Broadway role—as "Angelina" in Skydriftby the time she was 13, which caught the attention of Hollywood talent scouts.

Here are partial tracks for Natalie and Russ, which were used during filming. Natalie sang to this track while filming, but it is just a piano/vocal track. I stripped out Marni Nixon (who replaced her voice entirely in the film) and put back the orchestra. Why they dubbed Russ Tamblyn, I don't know -- I think he sounds great! From Marni Nixon: "The sessions were set up so that Natalie would first record a song on her own and then I would get up and record the whole song again...they explained my presence by saying that they would be able to mix my high notes into her takes, which I knew at the time was...technically impossible. It was very disheartening to hear them as they listened to her playbacks and extolled her vocal prowess. 'Oh Natalie, that was just wonderful,' they cooed. The...

Russ Tamblyn might as well face it...he will be a Jet "till his last dying day." Indelibly linked to the "womb to tomb" role of Riff, the knife-wielding, rocket-tempered, Edward Villella-styled gang leader of the streetwise Jets in the musical film masterpiece West Side Story (1961), it's not a bad way to be remembered! Russ was actually 27 when he portrayed the teenage troublemaker who became the '50s equivalent of the Mercutio character in the Romeo and Juliet-inspired adaptation.To describe Tamblyn as talented and extremely agile is a huge understatement. This awesome musical performer was born in Los Angeles, California on December 30, 1934, and groomed early for stardom. He is the son of Sally Aileen (Triplett) and Eddie Tamblyn (Edward Francis Tamblyn), both actors and entertainers. ...

The dancing star of "Seven Brides For Seven Brothers", "Tom Thumb", and "West Side Story" tries his hand at a rock and roll song, with "Fifteen Cents". Released in 1958 (as the "flip" side of "Tom Thumb's Tune") on Metro K20012. Orchestra under the direction of Harry Geller.
Twin Peaks television series portrays a hilarious attempt to hide the towns secrets in order to sell to investors. Icelander's are being duped by the character played by "West Side Story" actor, Richard Beymer. Interestingly, Russ Tamblyn, also from that film, gives an incredible performance in one of the best shows ever produced for television. The series follows the death of Laura Palmer. Her father, who is portrayed as losing his mind in the series after the death of his daughter, shows up to the event and starts to dance. Something has to be done, and the result is hilarious.
One of the most honored and commercially successful of all movie musicals, WEST SIDE STORY earned a near-record 10 Academy Awards in 1961. Oscar-winning Actor George Chakiris and Oscar-nominated Actor Russ Tamblyn will participate in a Q&A; after our 55th Anniversary screening at 7:30PM on June 29th at the Ahrya Fine Arts Theatre in Beverly Hills.
