He first lived in Los Angeles, and subsequently worked in beauty parlours in St. Louis, Cleveland, San Antonio and New Orleans.
As the era of motion picture sound dawned, he saw the careers and reputations of his sons grow and eclipse his own.
[8] George had six sons who went into the film make-up business, Monte, Perc, Ern, Wally, Bud and Frank, out of a total of nineteen children from his marriage to Ada Savage.
Named after George Westmore, they were hosted by the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees.
