When did Judy Garland stop acting?

Judy Garland never truly stopped acting. She continued to perform on stage and in film throughout her life, although her career was marked by periods of inactivity due to health issues and personal struggles.

She retired from active film roles in the late 1960s, but continued to perform in concerts and on television until her death in 1969.

Here's a breakdown of her career:

* 1930s-1940s: She rose to fame as a child star in MGM musicals.

* 1950s: She struggled with personal issues and her career went through a turbulent period, although she still had notable roles in films like "A Star Is Born" and "Judgment at Nuremberg."

* 1960s: She primarily focused on concerts and television appearances, most famously on her variety show "Judy Garland Show."

* 1969: She passed away on June 22, 1969, at the age of 47.

So, while Judy Garland's film career slowed down in the late 1960s, she continued to perform and entertain until the very end.
