Ruth Robinson - Munchkin

Ruth Robinson was the last of the female Munchkins from the 1939 blockbuster movie "The Wizard of Oz". She died on January 16, 2014 at a hospice facility in Las Vegas at the age of 95. Her death leaves Jerry Marren as the only surviving Munchkin from the movie.

She was part of a cast of 124 little people who played one of the iconic roles in the movie. While working at MGM, she met her future husband.

During World War II, she worked as a riveter at an aircraft facility. Her small stature allowed her to work in small spaces.

She spent the rest of her life appearing at festivals and screenings celebrating the movie. Back in September, she appeared in Los Angeles at the world premier of the "Wizard of Oz 3D".
