I believe Doris was 5'7".I'm abig fan of Doris,she always looked tall in all her movies,i just saw again "lullaby of Broadway" she easily looks 5'11" with heels on,next to listed 6'actor and dancer Gene Nelson,they are face to face many times dancing.

I always thought she was tall in most of her movies. I'll watch Lover, Come Back and Pillow Talk, Send Me No Flowers, Thrill Of It All, and she'll always look reasonably tall next to Rock Hudson, who was a giant himself. I always thought she was at least 5'8", and I have checked the footwear. I guess even back then they had ways of deceiving people with some serious lifts under her slippers and heels. She always seemed to be exactly eye-to-eye with 5'8" Tony Randal. But if she was 5'6" then, I imagine she's lost some height now since she's a very old woman. I saw footage of her and Rock walking side by side in the park, and this was back during the AIDS epidemic, and back then, I guess Rock would be no more then 6'4 - 6'5 tops. And he towered over Doris. She was just a hair less at his shoulder, which would be a foot. So, I imagine her being 5'4 - 5'5. Somewhere in there.

I'd say 5'7" would be more accurate. That's the heighth listed for Doris Day in
TCM's "The 50 Most Unforgettable Leading Ladies Of The Studio Era". Plus, if you compare her to Myrna Loy (her co-star in Midnight Lace), Day is definitely
taller. Loy is listed at 5'6". Also, if you compare her to Lauren Bacall (her
co-star in Young Man With A Horn), Doris is only maybe an inch, if that, shorter. Bacall was 5'8" at the time. So, logically, Doris Day's heighth appears to be closer to 5'7".

Hi All,

I don't dispute Frank2's accuracy but she must have been wearing some serious lifts when she was in 'Send Me No Flowers' with Rock Hudson (6'4") AND Clint Walker (6'6").

She looked taller than that in her films. I always thought she was at least 5`8. She looked tall next to Rock Hudson and James Stewart

Editor Rob says on 9/Sep/06
In 1969 Oakland Tribune described her "Doris maintains a constant 118 pounds on her almost 5-foot-6 frame"

Frank2 says on 3/Apr/06
Nope. Another bogus height listed. Doris was about 5'6". Watch The Glass Bottom Boat and you'll clearly see she's considerably shorter than co-star Rod Taylor. Now granted that at 5'6" she was still tall for her time. I've seen her height listed as being 5'8" on some sites. Absolute hogwash.
