Hillary Clinton To Attend LA Fundraiser Co-Hosted By Anna Wintour, CAA Executive And Palm Restaurateur
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is scheduled to hold two Los Angeles-area fundraisers for her campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination on May 23.
Tickets for an early evening event at the home of Bryan Lourd and Bruce Bozzi are $2,700, according to an invitation obtained by City News Service. Individuals raising $10,000 will be co-hosts of the event and will have a photo taken with Clinton.
The maximum individual contribution under federal law for a candidate seeking his or her party's presidential nomination is $2,700. However, Clinton has raised larger sums through the Hillary Victory Fund, a joint-fundraising committee that sends money to committees including the Democratic National Committee and 32 state party committees.
Lourd is the managing partner of the Creative Artists Agency talent agency. Bozzi is a co-owner of The Palm restaurants chain. The event is also hosted by Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of the fashion magazine Vogue.
An evening fundraiser in Hancock Park will follow, with tickets priced at $1,000. Individuals raising $20,000 will have a photo taken with Clinton.
The trip will be the 68-year-old Clinton's 12th to the Los Angeles area since declaring her candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination on April 12, 2015 and second this month.
Clinton held 26 fundraisers during her previous visits, including two during her most recent visit on May 5. One of those fundraisers, at the home of George Clooney, drew a group of protesters.
