Brooke Shields

I got to work with Brooke Shields last fall. She made an appearance in Dallas as part of the Brinker Lecture Series which raises money for The Dallas Center for Performing Arts. No pressure putting makeup on an ex-model and face that is recognized worldwide. A face that I grew up with from childhood. Brooke is still just as beautiful today and one of the few women I have seen who looks equally good in person or in front of the camera. And she’s a sweetheart. Basically she just said keep in light and fresh and let me do my thing. Only the real pros do that. Thank you Brooke. And thank you Gary Cogill for asking for makeup.00 -
Pepsi Co. annual bottlers convention
The Pepsi Co. annual bottlers convention held in Dallas, Texas September 2007 was a who’s who of celebrity personalities and Hall of Fame athletes. The Makeup Room was high energy but the buzz wasn’t from quaffing Mountain Dew. Oscar Winner Forest Whitaker, Daytona 500 winner and NASCAR driver, Dale Earnhardt Jr., who announced Wednesday his new sponsor and car number, comedian Darrell Hammond of Saturday Night Live, Hall of Famer Franco Harris, our favorite game show host, Bob Barker, Olympic Gold Medal winner Jim Craig, Dallas’ favorite dancing athlete, Emmitt Smith and Roger Craig with an arms length list of NFL records created the buzz in the makeup room. Celebrity makeup artist Penny Sadler was on call and what a suprise! Sadler said she was expecting the usual corporate execs and had no idea of the high profile talent on hand for the event. You never know who was going to sit in your chair. Jockeying for position in the makeup room was almost as intense as a pro game as one all star after another sat for their “powder and anti – shine.”

Do Makeup and Murder go together?
The answer is yes when makeup artist Penny Sadler was on the set of Court TV’s series, Murder By The Book. For this episode filmed in Arlington, Texas, Sadler glammed up best selling author Sandra Brown, who has made the New York Times best seller list 55 times. Sadler said, “Working with Sandra and a fantastic crew for 2 days was such a great experience. Sandra has a winning combination of beauty, charm, and brains. I always consider myself lucky when these opportunities appear.” The episode with Mrs. Brown and based on the book, Evidence of Love, will appear on Court TV in November.
