Hey you guys! Whether you know her best as the sizzling Anita in West Side Story or the bellowing live wire of The Electric Company—or perhaps the scene-stealing abuela of the reimagined One Day at a Time—it’s a given that few Hollywood stars burn as bright at 89 as Rita Moreno, the subject of an irresistible American Masters profile. Her accomplishments are well known—an EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony)—but so are her survival instincts, emerging triumphant from a studio system that for too long only saw the Puerto Rican native as stereotypically exotic. “Did having to struggle so much take something out of me? Not me!” she declares. Bravo!
