Sentence Fluency Help ( Good Sentence Beginning)?

Hello! I've been having some trouble coming up with an interesting opening phrase to state a celebrity's height.. Which of the following sounds the most fluent or is the most attention-grabbing?
1. Reaching an outstanding height of 5' 8", Marcia Cross is best known for......blah blah blah...
OR
2. With a whopping height of 5' 8", Marcia Cross is best known for... blah blah blah..
If neither one of those sound interesting, may you please help me come up with another interesting way to introduce her height in the beginning of a sentence?
Thank you in advance!

As 5'8" is not really a "whopping" height for a female, or particularly outstanding (especially among actresses), you might use something that more describes her frame, such as: a simple, "At an attractive height of 5'8"... or, "Standing a willowy 5'8".... , that she was that tall, you might say, "At a surprising height of 5'8"....

  • As 5'8" is not really a "whopping" height for a female, or particularly outstanding (especially among actresses), you might use something that more describes her frame, such as: a simple, "At an attractive height of 5'8"...
  • or, "Standing a willowy 5'8"....
  • , that she was that tall, you might say, "At a surprising height of 5'8"....
  • That is something that someone writing an article after interviewing her in person might write.
