I love Veronica Lake she so beautiful. I don't know how tall she is exactly cause I never met her I'm only 23. But every site I've visted claims she 4'11 and I checked out some pictures of her standing next to people and she really looks short. Watching her movies on TCM I always thought she was 5'8 but when I read that she was 4'11 I was so happy cause I'm 5'1 so it made me feel more better about myself that short woman can do anything like taller woman and attract men cause men back then and till this day loved her just like me. :)

In "Sullivan's Travels" she wore platforms next to 6ft3 Joel McCrea. In the scene when they're both disguised as bums, and Lake is wearing flats, she had to stand on a box, just to be in the frame with him!

Im so glad to know that Veronica wasn't remembered for her height, but for her beauty. I'm only 4 feet 11 and 1/3 of an inch and I feel like a stand out wherever I go. I hate it when people ask me how tall I am when its none of their business. I wish people weren't so height conscious and just be honest with their actual size. They're just numbers to calculate your body mass and lying about it won't make you taller.

Straight from Paramounts publicity department: Lake was 4ft11 and weighed 89lbs. She was referred to them as the "shortest lady currently in films" from an old Paramount publicity photo I one had of her. Lake looked every inch 4ft11, and not an inch over that. 5ft2 (which she claimed in her bio) was likely her height wearing her platform heels. This chick made 5ft4ish Claudette Colbert look Amazonian in "So Proudly We Hail."

Case closed.

Lake was actually 5'0" though usually reported as 5'0"-5'3".

Being a huge fan of Lake, I've heard her height being from 4'11" to 5'2", I've also heard tha Alan Ladd was 5'6"

Actually Ladd was even shorter. But yes, that was why they made films togethor--three I believe. "This Gun For Hire" being the best.

That's odd, I've heard from very many sources that Lake was 5'2.

Miss Lake made several pictures with actor Alan Ladd because they fit. Ladd was 5-4 and Lake 4-ll. Both very convincing actors.
