About Rita Moreno

Edited by the community

She was born on Friday the 11th of December 1931 in Humacao, Puerto Rico, and she is 94 years old. Her work in musical films like The King and I and West Side Story, along with television roles in The Electric Company and Oz, has made her a familiar face to audiences for decades.

Moreno stands 5'2" tall and weighs 106 lbs, with a slim build and measurements of 33–25–33. She has brown hair and brown eyes, and a B cup bra size. Her real, natural figure is a detail she's known for. As a Latin woman, she broke barriers early in her career when few Latina actresses were given prominent roles.

She is one of only a handful of artists to have won all four major American entertainment awards: an Oscar, an Emmy, a Grammy, and a Tony. She also numbers among the 23 people who have achieved the Triple Crown of Acting, with individual competitive Academy, Emmy, and Tony awards. This rare distinction puts her in an elite group. Beyond these honors, she holds numerous lifetime achievement awards and the Presidential Medal of Freedom, America's highest civilian honor. Her career remains a rich legacy in American entertainment.
