I was born in 1950 and watched science fiction and horror movies on TV and was always really fascinated by them.

The first time I made myself up, I was looking at my reflection in the mirror and it wasnt me looking back. It allowed me to do things I couldnt do as myself. I found out how powerful that was and how much that can mean to an actor.

When I do a mask, I do try to put a lot of character and a lot of expression into the sculpt.

I'm amazed that movies ever get finished at all - much less come out good once in a while. It's an awful lot of work and it can go wrong a thousand different ways.

It's fun doing new things.

There's a limit to what I can do with a makeup or with animatronics.

I'm not really listed anywhere; I don't know how people find me!
