How tall was Carole Landis?

Carole Landis was born 1919 on New Year's Day as Frances Lillian Mary Ridste in Fairchild, Wisconsin. Her father, a mechanic for the railroad, was of Norwegian origin and her mother was Polish. Her father walked out, left to fend for himself Carole, her mother and an older brother and son. She married Jack Robbins (Irving Wheeler) after graduation from high school but the relationship lasted only a month (the engagement was annulled because at the time Carole was just 15). In August 1934 the pair remarried, and the two moved to California to start a new life. She worked as a dancer and singer for a while, but the aura of show business attracted her to Los Angeles a short time ago.
