Michael Westmore

His career began at Universal Studios in 1961, and spanned four decades, including working for the CIA creating make-up kits for spies overseas.

[4][7] For Raging Bull, Westmore designed the prosthetic noses which Robert De Niro wore throughout the film, and the make up which simulated bleeding through tubes placed under fake skin.

[8] He worked with Tom Burman on make-up sets for the Central Intelligence Agency for operatives overseas to change identities.

[4] He was initially apprehensive about working on a television show as his previous experience had been only with feature films, but after discussing it with his wife he thought that the idea of a year-long project was positive.

He was responsible for Kamal Haasan's make up in the Shankar directed Indian Tamil film called 'Indian'.

He also spent eighteen months on the Indian film Dasavathaaram, where actor Kamal Haasan played ten different roles which each required prosthetics.
