Obituary
ST. LOUIS – One of the last surviving Munchkins from the 1939 classic film "The Wizard of Oz" has died.
St. Louis actor Mickey Carroll died Thursday at the age of 89.
His caretaker, Linda Dodge, made the announcement Thursday.
Carroll was born Michael Finocchiaro in July 1919 in St. Louis, the son of Italian immigrants.
He was one of more than 100 adults and children who were recruited for "Oz" to play the natives of what author L. Frank Baum called Munchkin Country in his 1900 book "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz."
Carroll told The Associated Press in a 2007 interview that the Munchkins made only $125 a week while filming, followed by decades of recognition.

Mickey was always so generous with his time. I spent many hours with Mickey and was fortunate to hear many of his stories first hand. He is missed. ❤

St. Louis lost a gem when we lost Mickey Carroll. My aunt had the pleasure of knowing him personally, and when she and he found out of my love for The Wizard of Oz, he sent me an autographed card. It will always be something I will love and cherish. Rest in peace, Mickey. May the magic of Oz always be with you.
