  • Make-up Department
IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Geralyn Wraith created the makeup, designing prosthetics and special makeup effects for "The Kids in the Hall". Ever since their first season, she was instrumental in helping create the innumerable characters for the series. Wraith received a Civilian Citation Award from the Metro Intelligence for whom she did the ultimate makeup job of her career, resulting in the arrest of two Toronto businessmen for conspiracy to murder charges. Born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan into a military family of Irish/Ojibway descent, she moved to Toronto, Ontario and joined the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation network in 1975. Self employed, since 1993, Geralyn, brings years of experience to the makeup field. Her skills encompass makeup design, continuity, teaching, budgeting, interpersonal skills, lace hair pieces and wig knowledge. Please note that in Canada a "Key" credit means the same as a Makeup Dept. Head credit.
