American Actress known for roles in The Bad and the Beautiful, The Postman Always Rings Twice and Peyton Place. In Follicles of the Rich and Famous a hairstylist who done her hair for one tv series commented: "Her posture and stance were such that you would think she was a model, yet she was only 5ft 4". Lana herself said in 1961 (LA Times), "I'm only 5-3 1/2!, When people meet me they always say, 'But I thought you were so much taller'"

My weight was up to 115, hardly what anybody would call fat or even plump, but still 10 pounds more than I like. I'm only five-feet-three-and-a-half inches tall.
