Grasham carved a niche for himself representing child actors. He was fired from APA talent agency after sexual assault accusations from several actors.

Another former child actor is accusing Hollywood agent Tyler Grasham of sexual assault.

The latest accuser is 23-year-old British actor, Jack Edwards, who claims he was just 15 when Grasham assaulted him at a London hotel. Edwards made his accusation in an L.A. Times story in which seven other young male actors and film industry professionals alleged they were sexually assaulted or harassed by Grasham.

Grasham worked for APA, a Beverly Hills-based talent agency, and carved a niche for himself representing child actors. Grasham left the agency a couple of weeks ago after a similar charge by filmmaker Blaise Godbe Lipman.

L.A. Times reporter Gus Garcia-Roberts has been reporting on this story. He joined The Frame to talk about the accusations and APA's response.
