The contribution of makeup artists, hair stylists, and costumers to the filmmaking process has received little scholarly or public recognition - even when their artistry has inspired worldwide fashion trends.
Adrienne L. McLean is Professor of Film Studies at the University of Texas at Dallas. She is the author or editor of numerous books, including Being Rita Hayworth: Labor, Identity, and Hollywood Stardom, Glamour in a Golden Age: Movie Stars of the 1930, and Cinematic Canines: Dogs and Their Work in the Fiction Film.
'A fascinating book taking a broad historical approach to three interrelated Hollywood crafts -costume, hair and makeup - linking them to important economic, cultural, and technological changes in the film industry and American society.' - Lucy Fischer, author of Designing Women
