Makeup Man

From Rocky to Star Trek The Amazing Creations of Hollywood's Michael Westmore

By: Michael Westmore,Jake Page

Headline: A peak behind the Hollywood mask by one of its foremost makeup artists In Hollywood’s heyday, almost every major studio had a Westmore heading up the makeup department. Since 1917, there has never been a time when Westmores weren’t shaping the visages of stardom. For their century-long dedication to the art of makeup, the Westmores were honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2008. In this lively memoir, Michael Westmore not only regales us with tales of Hollywood’s golden age, but also from his own career where he notably transformed Sylvester Stallone into Rocky Balboa and Robert DiNiro into Jake LaMotta, among many other makeup miracles. Westmore’s talent as a makeup artist first became apparent when he created impenetrable disguises for Kirk Douglas, Tony Curtis, Burt Lancaster, Robert Mitchum, and Frank Sinatra for the 1963 film The List of Adrian Messenger. He later went on to become the preferred makeup man for Bobby Darin and Elizabeth Taylor, and worked on such movies and TV shows as The Munsters, Rosemary’s Baby, Eleanor and Franklin, New York, New York, 2010: A Space Odyssey, and Mask, for which he won an academy award. The next phase of his career was to create hundreds of alien characters for over 600 episodes of Star Trek in all its iterations, from The Next Generation to Enterprise. Replete with anecdotes about Hollywood and its stars, from Bette Davis’s preference for being made-up in the nude to Shelley Winters’s habit of nipping from a “little bottle” while on the set, Makeup Man will satisfy any Hollywood’s fan’s appetite for gossip or a behind-the-scenes look at how tinsel town’s most iconic film characters were created. Academy Award-winning Michael Westmore has been making up the stars for over fifty years. He frequently appears on the SyFy channel show Face Off with his daughter McKenzie Westmore.

Slocum 268: Slocum and the Hired Gun

By: Jake Logan

There’s too many itchy trigger fingers in Harleyville—and only one Slocum… Harleyville may be a little town—but there’s a big-time range war brewing and more trigger-happy cowhands than you can shake a stick at. With bodies piling up, either side could use an experienced gunslinger. Slocum figures it’s someone else’s problem—but he winds up right in the middle of it anyway… When things turn ugly Slocum takes a side—but he’s not the only gunslinger in town. Aaron “One Shot” Parsons rode into Harleyville willing to slap leather for whoever pays him. He may be the best shooter in the West—but he’ll have a hell of a time drawing a bead on Slocum…

The Devil's Side Pocket

By: Jake Wilhelm

DEVIL’S SIDE POCKET It seemed like the right thing to do. That city fellow Dr. Hayle wanted to conduct an archeological dig on Elvin Kristiansen’s ranch, and Elvin isn’t the type to stand in anyone’s way of doing something good. He was raised to live up to his last name, which is basically Son of Christ. When Dr. Hayle begins to tell lies – then get caught telling them – you’d think Elvin would flip his lid on the darn city slicker. He will. It’s just going to take awhile.
