In the history of the modern American movies, there are but few legacies of makeup artists. Only one family features four working generations(2012 it's 95 Years): The Westmores of Hollywood. With ties to virtually every studio in the annals of cinema; the Westmores created classic beauty makeups back to the earliest years of silent film.
Legendary Makeup men, The Westmores of Hollywood received their Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The former honorary Hollywood Mayor, and Walk of Fame Chairman, Johnny Grant, described this honor as earned recognition for a combination of professional achievement and community involvement. Westmores of Hollywood Star celebration was on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 1645 Vine Street - West side of the Street just below Hollywood Blvd., (Friday) October 3, 2008, (Star # 2,370th)
Pioneers of their industry, Johnny pointed out that - Westmores not only created, but defined the role of makeup artists in Motion Pictures. Wigmaker, George Westmore made history when he opened the very first makeup department in 1917 at Selig Polyscope Studios. Georges oldest sons, Monte, Ern, Perc, Wally, Bud & Frank went on to open their own makeup departments at Warner Brothers, RKO, Fox, Selznick, Paramount and Universal. By the 1930s nearly every motion picture studio employed a Westmore heading up their makeup department.
