In his bio for Salt Lake City Skyline at the Public in 1980, John Lithgow said that he was especially happy to be working with Fred Gwynne, so that he was not the tallest person on stage.

That you only added the half inch to your height and not your husband and kids.

...but everyone else’s heights are even (or close enough for government work to be called “even.”

Well, I've been 5'11 1/2" most of my adult life and report it as such (after rounding it up to 6ft when I was in my twenties). Do you consider that short?

Actually, I bet I'm 5'11 these days--my husband has gone from 5'9" to 5'8," so age does "shorten" most people, I suspect.

I believe most people vary in height

Throughout the day about 1/2” or 1-2cm. Your spine compresses during the day being upright.

Then there is Hollywood height were actors add a few inches— Tom cruise is a hollywood 6’.
