Oscar- and Emmy-winning makeup artist Michael Westmore will receive the Vanguard Award for contributions to the makeup and hairstyling industry during the 11th annual Make-Up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild (IATSE Local 706) Awards.
Westmore won an Oscar in 1986 for the film Mask and earned three additional nominations. He also has received a record 45 Emmy nominations, bringing home nine statuettes. His credits include Rocky, Raging Bull and more than 600 episodes of Star Trek series work. Since 1917, almost every major studio has had Westmore supervising its makeup departments, including his father, Monte Westmore, on Gone With the Wind, the Guild reports.
“IATSE Local 706 is excited and thrilled to honor Michael Westmore with the Vanguard Award,” said the Guild’s business rep, Karen J. Westerfield, in a statement. “His contributions and expertise to our industry are unparalleled. His unwavering encouragement and guidance to elevate our members, along with the Westmore legacy, will continue to inspire future generations of make-up artists and hair stylists. We are truly honored to celebrate his achievements and incredible talent. We recognize him as the man, the myth, the mentor…Michael Westmore.”
