Former Transparent Employee Says Jeffrey Tambor Spied on Her While She Slept Naked
LatestJeffrey Tambor was fired from the set of Transparent after an investigation into the claims made by several women on set who claimed Tambor subjected them to sexual harassment. One of those women, Van Barnes, has come forward to detail what her experience with Tambor was like, and ask why Amazon hasn’t stepped up to help her.
In a Wednesday morning interview on Megyn Kelly Today, Barnes explained that she initially posted about her experience with Tambor under the hashtag #MeToo without naming him, on her private Facebook page. She was surprised that it snowballed from there. Barnes worked with Tambor as his assistant on a number of projects, not just Transparent.
“Continually, I was always harassed,” said Barnes. “It ran the gamut of sexual harassment, physical harassment, and verbal abuse constantly. And this all really falls under the problem that Hollywood has right now of the abuse of power and misogyny.”
