His first major success was on EDWARD SCISSORHANDS working with award-winning make-up artist Ve Neill.

Oscar nominations for SCHINDLER'S LIST, aging James Woods for GHOSTS OF MISSISSIPPI and his transformation of Glenn Close and Janet McTeer in ALBERT NOBBS, his fourth Oscar nomination.

One of Matthew's biggest challenges, which started in 2003, is creating the various character prosthetics and masks for the hit Broadway show Wicked . Balancing his film and TV projects, Matthew & his lab W.M. Creations, Inc. continues his work for the show's Broadway, U.S. tours and worldwide productions. After 42 years as a master of make-up effects, the artist moved to Texas and set up a studio for his loyal clients, including stars Robert DeNiro, Glenn Close and Tracey Ullman.

In 1986, he was fortunate to work on his rst lm, TUCKER. For the next 13 years, he continued to work in both lm and theater until 1999 when he was asked to come to Los Angeles to work on HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS. Shortly thereafter, he became a journeyman of Local 706. He has been part of some wonderfully creative projects including THE JOY LUCK CLUB, THE CALL OF THE WILD, JOJO RABBIT, THE LAST SAMURAI, ALICE IN WONDERLAND, J.J. ABRAMS' STAR TREK, THOR, J.

Additional television credits include Cinema Verite, which garnered an Emmy nomination, AGENT CARTER, and TRANSPARENT. Terry is a member of the Motion Picture Academy, the Television Academy and on a committee to help develop exhibits for the Motion Picture Academy Museum.
After his training at the San Francisco Opera Wig and Make-Up Department and South Carolina's Spoleto Festival apprenticeship, he was hired by Theatrical Hairgoods Company to travel to regional opera and theater companies to run their hair and make-up departments for more than ten years. He was wigmaster at San Diego Opera for nine years, during which time he won a Guild Award for Best Theatrical Hair Design of their production of THE MAGIC FLUTE.
