Art Lund, towering at an exact 6ft 4 (193 cm), was an American baritone singer who performed with bandleaders Benny Goodman and Harry James, and later became a notable television, stage, and film actor in movies like The Molly Maguires, The Last American Hero, Black Caesar, and Bucktown.
His impressive height defined his on-screen presence as a commanding figure, yet he wore 2-inch lifts in The Molly Maguires to edge out taller co-stars. As a tall actor, Lund noted losing roles early on but found height less of a barrier later, humorously admitting he felt short beside a professional basketball team.
