What Little House on the Prairie cast member wore 4" lifts in their shoes to appear taller?

While Michael Landon was by no means short, he wanted Charles Ingalls to be portrayed as a taller father figure than his 5' 9" frame would allow. Therefore, he wore 4" lifts in his boots and even positioned himself to look taller in many scenes.
