George Masters, a Hollywood hair stylist and makeup artist whose

clients ranged from Marilyn Monroe to Lynda Bird Johnson to Dustin Hoffman as

“Tootsie,” has died. He was 62. Masters died of natural causes in Los Angeles

on March 6, his friend Jeff Platts reported Monday. Born in Detroit, Masters

began coiffing Grosse Point women when he was 17. After working in major New

York and Los Angeles salons, he traveled with Monroe as her personal makeup

artist. “I worked with Marilyn during the last three years of her life and she

was among the least ‘naturally’ sexy or beautiful women I’ve glamorized,”

Masters told The Times in 1977. “It took me hours to get her all pulled

together. But eventually, when she was set to go--pow! She exploded.” Masters

became an international celebrity in 1966 when he made over first daughter

Lynda Bird Johnson (now Mrs. Charles Robb) for her date with actor George

Hamilton to attend the Academy Awards ceremony. “Of all the subjects I’ve

worked on, she was my greatest challenge,” Masters said years later. “I spent

four hours on her make-over for the Oscars. She was only 19 and kept asking,

‘Why is all this necessary? Why can’t people like me for myself, the way I am?’

” In addition to making up Hoffman as a female in the 1982 comedy movie

“Tootsie,” Masters frequently handled the makeup and hair of a favored client,

actress Ann-Margret, for roles in such films as “The Train Robbers” with John

Wayne in 1973, and the 1990s television films “Nobody’s Children” and “Our

Sons.” His other movie credits include “Tender Is the Night” starring Jennifer

Jones in 1962. Masters’ celebrity client list included major Hollywood beauties

such as Lauren Bacall, Diahann Carroll, Arlene Dahl, Bo Derek, Marlene Dietrich

and Sophia Loren, business mavens such as Elizabeth Arden and such political

wives as the Duchess of Windsor, Rosalyn Carter and Nancy Reagan. In recent

years, Masters, who was author of a popular advice and gossip book, “The

Masters Way to Beauty,” offered $350 beauty consultations in high-end stores

across the country. “The average housewife is more difficult to help than an

actress,” he told The Times. “The housewife doesn’t really want to change. An

actress knows I can help.”
