She also worked on The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, The Green Mile, and Superman Returns.[4]
In 2004, she was the lead prosthetic artist for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, leading a team of 42 makeup and prosthetic experts.[4] For this movie, she and Howard Berger won the 2005 Academy Award for Best Makeup.[4] In 2013, she, Peter Swords King, and Rick Findlater,[1] were nominated for another Academy Award for Makeup, for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.[3]
