PMG’s Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to Emily Ferry. A legend in the craft, she was the first female property master in film and television — a pioneer in breaking institutional barriers and paving the way for future generations. She is a master across all genres, with her work spanning 40 years and more than 50 films including The Right Stuff, Addams Family Values, Alien: Resurrection, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Memoirs of a Geisha and many others.

Russell Bobbitt, the veteran property master behind the Marvel Cinematic Universe, received the Hill Valley Humanitarian Award for his outstanding philanthropic efforts and dedication to using his talents and resources to make a difference in the lives of those in need, including providing unique hands-on Marvel prop experiences for youth encountering debilitating health challenges. His credits include Avengers, Iron Man, Captain America and Guardians of the Galaxy films, among many others.

The Property Masters Guild created the MacGuffin Awards to recognize and honor the often-overlooked but crucial role of property masters in the industry, who are responsible for sourcing, creating and managing all the props and set pieces.
