These films gave her a platform to help pioneer gore and special make-up effects that are commonplace today. Zapata is the recipient of four Emmys, for 'Star Trek: Next Generation', 'Hairspray Live' and two for 'Westworld', and earned three additional nominations. Her credits include 'Legally Blonde', 'The Artist', 'Masters of Sex' and 'Rain Man'.

Their longevity of successes and achievements are inspiring to us all, and they have created a legacy of characters that are permanently embedded in our memories forever," said Julie Socash, president of the Guild, as per The Hollywood Reporter.
