American actress best known for roles in films such as Blended, Are You Here, Jurassic World (2015) and TV shows Orange is the New Black. On twitter she once commented upon her height, saying:
"Real convo. 2 girls: damn how tall are you? Me: I'm 7 feet tall. 2 girls: really?? Damn! Me: I'm 5'10 are you high? 2 girls: do you model? "

I think she could probably pass for a little more.

She is just as tall as Jim Parson without heels. 6'1", Probably just saying 5'10" for roles.

Interesting...she really does look like only about inch shorter than Jim Parsons who is said to be 6'1. Although he has usually bad posture in series, probably on purpose, and in that scene aswell. So maybe it took him 1-2cm of his full height and thick shoes of Laura is an answer of such little difference between people where it should be about 3 inches. Although again 5'10 looks legit for her next to Laura Prepon in are you there. OR MAYBE she really did have little heels.

She knows the hollywood rule "any guy who says he's 6' is 5'10 and any guy who says he's 5'10 is 5'8"

She's almost as tall as Jim Parsons on The Big Bang Theory. Didn't see the footwear but I'm pretty sure they aren't heels. Maybe thick sneakers

Well, McGorry is on How to Get Away with Murder with Charlie Weber, whom Rob has met, so it's only a matter of time before he gets a page.

She has the weirdest face though with her disappearing chin

Didn't think she looked that tall in OITNB, but I guess there are a fair few tall people on that show to skew it a bit. Rob, what would you guess for Matt McGorry (Bennet)? He always looked quite short to me, but seeing as she is this tall I think he could be in the 5ft 8 range.
Also, what would your estimate for Michael Harney (Healy) be? I thought he always looked 5ft 11 next to Taylor Schilling, and looks an inch or so taller than Lauren looking at it now.

She's one of "those girl" modern character actress, I recognize her from something but have a hard time placing her. She does seem lanky.
