Judy Garland’s Wizard of Oz stand-in, Caren Marsh Doll, is still alive at 106 years old!
Holy crap. She even survived a plane crash in 1949.
[quote] Marsh was hospitalized at Cedars of Lebanon Hospital for several weeks, and nearly had her left foot amputated. Marsh's doctors told her that she would likely never dance again, but after careful exercise she was able to heal and continue in her dancing.
The close-up shots of the Ruby slippers are Marsh’s legs and feet. She’s also the person you see run to the door before Dorothy enters Oz.

She’s still active. She gave an interview on camera last year.

106 or not they should have given her a cameo in Wicked.

Those two Wicked stars are sounding more and more like The Wicked Bitches of the Silver Screen.
