[post_page_title]Arnaz and the height advantage[/post_page_title]
Arnaz’s height was typically listed 5’11” in most of his official biographies. The reality is that the actor-musician was actually 5’9, and there is a funny story behind this discrepancy.
Owing to his Latin American pride, Arnaz demanded that he appear taller than his wife on-screen. He wore shoes with lifts and also had the family love seat layered with extra cushions to give him the extra height advantage, all that for Desi to be taller than Lucy.
