Actor Offers $25K Reward For Stolen Photo
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Jason Lee has offered a $25,000 reward for the return of a stolen photograph he snapped of the late Dennis Hopper.
Lee's black and white Polaroid of the iconic "Easy Rider" actor and director was on display as part of an exhibit in Los Angeles when it was swiped Saturday night.
Lee's publicist, Nancy Iannios, said Sunday that an unidentified person grabbed the 8x10 photo from the wall and ran out the front door of the gallery in the Highland Park neighborhood.
Iannios says the "My Name is Earl" star has a sentimental attachment to the Polaroid and will pay $25,000 for its safe return, no questions asked.
The photo of Hopper, who died last year, was included in an exhibit by a six-person artist collective called THIS Los Angeles.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the collective.
