Judy Garland dominated stage and screen for five incredible decades, boasting critically acclaimed performances in A Star is Born and The Wizard of Oz as well as a renowned film partnership with Mickey Rooney in the golden age of MGM.
She remains the youngest recipient of the Cecil B DeMille award for Lifetime Achievement in Motion Pictures and was posthumously awarded a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. In 1999, the American Film Institute placed her in the 10 Greatest Female Stars in the history of American Cinema.
Now, by arrangement with the Judy Garland Estate, and with the official blessing of her family, we take you on a magical journey through the songs that established Judy Garland as show business royalty.
