This week, we had the privilege of talking with the Westmore family historian and great grandaughter of Ern Westmore: Christiana Benson! The Westmores were some of the most prominent makeup artists of Old Hollywood; they created looks for films such as Gone With the Wind (1939), Casablanca (1942), Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961), The Creature from the Black Lagoon (1957), and soooooooo much more. Christiana tells us about how patriarch George Westmore established the first Hollywood hair and makeup department in 1917, the talent of his descendants (amounting to four generations of family artists!), and the impact this family had on not just the world of special effects, but how the general public could embrace their own beauty. We are so honored to share the story of their legacy with you! To learn more about the Westmore family, please visit https://www.westmoresofhollywood.com/ or follow Christiana on Instagram @cbenson015
