Where Judy Garland’s Iconic Dress From ‘The Wizard of Oz’ Was Found 50 Years Later

A dress once worn by Judy Garland in "The Wizard of Oz" has been found at a university in Washington, D.C. The dress, which was given to the Catholic University of America nearly 50 years ago by actress Mercedes McCambridge, was recently discovered in a box inside a trash bag. Matt Ripa, who works for the school’s drama department, said he’d been looking for the dress in 2014, when another, now-retired professor found it, and placed it in his office, according to a press release by the school.
