Richard A. “Rick” Baker (born December 8, 1950 in Binghamton, New York) is an American special makeup effects artist known for his creature effects.

As a teen, Baker began creating artificial body parts in his own kitchen. He also appeared briefly in the fan production “The Night Turkey” a one-hour, black-and-white video parody of “The Night Stalker” directed by William Malone (Scared to Death; House on Haunted Hill; Fear.com). Baker’s first notable professional job was as an assistant to Dick Smith on the film The Exorcist. He received the inaugural Academy Award for Best Makeup for his work on An American Werewolf in London. He also created the “werecat” creature Michael Jackson transforms into in the music video Thriller. 

Baker claims his work on Harry and the Hendersons is one of his proudest achievements. On October 3, 2009, he received the Jack Pierce – Lifetime Achievement Award title of the Chiller-Eyegore Awards. He also contributes commentaries to the web series Trailers From Hell for trailers about horror and science fiction films.
