Nina Foch, standing at an authoritative 5ft 8 (172.7 cm), brought a tall, elegant presence to Classic Hollywood. She once quipped, 'I'm five feet eight in my stocking feet, yet I only weigh 115 pounds even though I eat like a stevedore,' highlighting how her statuesque height and slender frame defined her glamorous image.
Her commanding 5ft 8 stature suited dramatic roles in films like An American in Paris, Executive Suite, Spartacus, The Ten Commandments, and My Name is Julia Ross. Later, she became a respected acting instructor.
