Jennifer Lawrence is reported at about 5 ft 9 in (175 cm). A traceable description comes from director Lori Petty’s interview about casting her in The Poker House.
Where Jennifer Lawrence’s reported height comes from
In Metro Times’ original interview, Petty describes Lawrence as 5 ft 9 in while recalling her audition. This is a statement by a director who worked with her, not a documented measurement or Lawrence’s own numerical answer.
5 ft 9 in equals 175.26 cm, rounded to about 175 cm. The source does not support more precise barefoot figures or calculations from red-carpet footwear.
The Hunger Games and her Oscar-winning role
Lawrence plays Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games and won Best Actress for Silver Linings Playbook at the 2013 Academy Awards. Her earlier work includes The Poker House and Winter’s Bone.
Vogue’s original 73 Questions interview below offers her own perspective on work and life. It is included as an interview, not as a second measurement source.
