EGOT winner Rita Moreno reflects on life and career
Al Roker sat down with Rita Moreno on The Today Show this week to talk about her iconic roles, including her breakout in “West Side Story.” Moreno opened up about the good times she’s had in Hollywood over the years as well as the rough times she’s faced, including harassment because of her ethnicity and some difficult personal relationships.
Moreno came to the US from Puerto Rico at the age of five in the 1930s and immediately found out, first-hand, what racism is: “Certain people didn’t like me, on sight.”
