Can you tell me where Judy Garland was born and her nickname when growing up?

By

 Can you tell me where Judy Garland was born and her nickname when growing up?

 

 Can anyone from Activerain please tell Vegas Bob where Judy Garland was born. And can anyone please tell me what Judy Garlands nickname was?

 Here is a Video I took of the Birth Place of Judy Garland and I am sure most of you never knew and now you do!

 Judy Garland's parents and my Grandparents knew each other.

 And did they ever find the real "Ruby Slippers?"

Bob:

Judy Garland (Frances Gumm) was born in Grand Rapids, Minnesota.

But, as far as her nickname - I have no idea.

I am a big fan of her story and of a film that Judy Davis did portraying her.  It was called "Life With Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows."  It is time well-spent if you are at all interested.

Lots of Judy Garland fans in the room. I did not know the answer to either of those questions, but I've seen "The Wizard of Oz" lots of times. NOt sure that counts for anything, though.
