Join us for a book talk to celebrate Dr. Adrienne L. McLean's new book All for Beauty: Makeup and Hairdressing in Hollywood's Studio Era, Rutgers University Press, July 2022.
This book provides an industrial history that examines how and why makeup and hairdressing evolved as crafts in the studio era. Readers will never again watch Hollywood films without thinking about the roles of makeup and hairdressing in creating not just fictional characters but stars as emblems of an idealized and undeniably mesmerizing visual perfection.
Special Guest: Dr. Adrienne L. McLean
Panel of Respondents: Alisha Chunara, Tinamarie Ivey, Mazyar Mahan, Brecken Hunter Wellborn.
The event will take place in the JO Conference Room (JO 4.122) at 4 p.m. as well as on Microsoft Teams. Click here to join the meeting.
