And he went along with it. Thankfully, he didn't let that be the crux of his career.

Most of his roles were likable characters that didn't lean much on how tall he is.

I remember his character on Spin City being the complete opposite of a jester, but that was later in his career.

I'm guessing that with his star power at that point, he could reject those stereotypical short man roles.

She talks herself through this as if she had some "leverage" and of course, blames the men she chooses (which will of course have lots of better looking options) rather than herself.

Austin Dunham asks about height, doesn't get the answer he wanted.

I can't stand interviews like this because the interviewer (usually average or tall) is looking for a particular answer to boost his own ego. 

I like the fact that the woman stood ten toes down on her not caring much about height (her boyfriend is 5'4) and that the boyfriend looked un-phased.

Harry Potter wanted to be a little taller.

I did not know this about Danielle Radcliffe. More interesting that it made the news. Nice fella. Doesn't get into Hollywood drama.
