I'd love to be taller than I am, I mean it...I was 5-foot-7 when I was 12, and everybody next to me was teeny.
I didn't like it. Then I wanted so much to be an actress, but didn't think I'd have too much of a chance as I kept growing and growing. But now? Now there's a new thing for tall girls in Hollywood, because movies can do all sorts of things. They can put men on boxes so they'll be taller than I am...Poor Doug McClure. He's really quite tall, you know, but in Hollywood a girl is supposed to come only to a man's nose, so he had to walk around on boxes all the time [in Shenandoah] and kept slipping off. I really felt sorry for him. -- 1965

Really quite tall for an actress back then, funny that she wish that she were taller, she would’ve had a tougher time getting roles if she towered in heels the male actors.
