In most of my pictures I had to stand on a wooden box for closeups with the male lead, otherwise I'd strain my neck looking up at him.
Walter Pidgeon played my father three times, and he's about 6-feet 4-inches tall. The poor man was forced to sit down in almost all of the scenes we had together...My height - or lack of it - kept me busy playing little girl roles long after I'd outgrown them in every other way.
I pile my hair on top of my head, which adds about two inches. And then i wear 3 ½ inch heels on my shoes. By the time I'm dressed I can measure up to five foot, seven inches, which isn't so bad.
-- 1959
