Judy Garland
American actress and singer (1922–1969)
Judy Garland (born Frances Ethel Gumm; June 10, 1922 – June 22, 1969) was an American actress, singer, and vaudevillian. Renowned for her powerful contralto voice, emotional depth, and versatility, Garland rose to international fame as Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz (1939), a role that cemented her status as a Hollywood legend.
Garland began her career as a child performer in vaudeville alongside her sisters as part of The Gumm Sisters. At age 13, she was signed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), where she starred in numerous musical films, including The Wizard of Oz (1939), Meet Me in St. Louis (1944), Easter Parade (1948), and Summer Stock (1950). Known for her collaborations with Mickey Rooney and director Vincente Minnelli (her second husband), Garland became one of MGM's most bankable stars during the Golden Age of Hollywood.

Though she played the ingenue in the film, Garland herself perhaps had more in common with Vicki's love interest Norman Maine (James Mason), a former A lister whose career had begun to wane. Then a mere 32-years-old, Garland had already spent most of her life on the stage and screen, with a career that oscillated wildly along with her own mental and physical health.
