Dustin Hoffman accused of groping actress ‘night after night’ offstage in ‘Death of a Salesman’
Dustin Hoffman, already under withering fire for allegations of past sexual harassment, was accused of nightly groping an actress who co-starred with him in Death of a Salesman in 1983-84.
Kathryn Rossetter published a lengthy guest column Friday in The Hollywood Reporter describing what she called “a horrific, demoralizing and abusive experience” at the hands of her acting idol, Hoffman, 80.
Now in her 60s, Rossetter paints a disturbing portrait of the Oscar-winner, describing him as a great and generous actor who helped give her a career. But he’s also a man who manipulates, abuses his power and is generally “a pig to women,” she writes, adding, “They are not mutually exclusive.”
“My issue isn’t what he said, it’s what he did,” she wrote. “Along with the nightly sexual harassment, he eroded my confidence, my dignity. He humiliated and demeaned me. He robbed me of my joy in the experience and he left dirty fingerprints on my soul.”
