Connie Boyer, listed in the credits of LOTM under "Additional Make Up" - and of our WWW Board fame - began her journey into MohicanLand as an Asheville, NC convenience store clerk. Having done some acting and make-up & hair work in the theatre, she called the local office of the production company upon hearing of the upcoming making of LOTM. Peter Robb-King, the head make-up guy, hired her on the spot. Our good fortune! Connie has an incredible array of photos from the sets, some of which we present below. Thank you, Connie!

The tough work of a make-up artist; Connie Boyer at work!
They [the photos] are pretty self explanatory. Well...maybe not the one of me on my knees! That was my job! lol! ... Connie

Michael Mann at Massacre Valley
camera setup at massacre valley. I  guess you recognize MM. The guy in the white headband is Gusmano Cesaretti, (a visual consultant) He was the very sweet man who gave me all of the furnishings he acquired while in the US when he went back to Italy. (they included a futon & some great local pottery!) ... Connie

Eric Schweig, Beasley Willis, Sr. & Russell Means
[Willis'] 1st movie & probably his last. Not because he was bad! He was one of the hundreds of Indian extras found in the remote parts of the country. By the way... 90% of the stunt men you see in the credits started out as extras. Somewhere along the line someone had the good taste to give them the titles of stunt men because they were really doing the job! ... Connie

Air-brushing tattoos on Uncas
I know the girls will love this one! Eric getting his tattoos airbrushed by the head of the tattoo dept, Russell Dodson (he was only 23, a real cut up! He was always pulling stunts (practical jokes) that would have gotten him fired if they knew who did them. Mitzi Gunter (our boss) always covered for him ... Connie

Hawkeye relaxes near the set of Cameron's Cabin.
DDL was sitting outside his trailer with his driver. I asked if I could get his pic. He said "sure," & gave a big smile ... Connie
