Rhonda Barrymore was divorced, with two kids at a young age. She had to get a job. She started working as a make-up artist and one of her first clients was Diane von Furstenberg, who had recently introduced a cosmetic line. From then on, she says, “I became known as a celebrity make-up artist.” Self-taught as a make-up artist and stylist, she went on to work with Presidents and First Ladies, and with TV networks at Olympic Games since 1996.
