"Creating a book that is a highly detailed nuts and bolts manual and an inspirational guide is a true balancing act. The monumental logistics of working with collaborator experts and multiple models, of documenting complicated processes, while honoring the work of the original author are to be commended. This edition includes Richard Corson’s preface; new readers can hear in his own words how he wanted performers, designers, and directors and makeup artists to use his book. The contemporary practice of makeup design and application has been left in capable hands, ensuring that the legacy of Corson’s classic work reaches forward to future generations through James Glavan and Beverly Gore Norcross."
