Hours after Dustin Hoffman apologized to a former intern for a 30-year-old account of sexual harassment, a second accuser came forward on Wednesday.

Wendy Riss Gatsiounis, then a playwright in her 20s in search of her big break in New York in 1991, told Variety that the Oscar winner, then 53, made verbal advances and tried to convince her to leave his production company's office and go to a nearby hotel.

She described Hoffman as being well-behaved in the first of two meetings at Hoffman's Punch Productions, saying that he "playfully" corrected production partner and Tootsie screenwriter Murray Schisgal when he asked her if she was in a relationship, noting, "Don’t you know you can’t talk to women that way anymore? Times are changing."

But Riss Gatsiounis said things were different when Riss Gatsiounis met the pair again later and Hoffman interrupted her before she could present her reworked pitch for a proposed play, A Darker Purpose.

“I go in, and this time it’s, like, Dustin Hoffman’s really different,” she told Variety, “He says, ‘Before you start, let me ask you one question, Wendy — have you ever been intimate with a man over 40?' It would be a whole new body to explore.”

Riss Gatsiounis said Hoffman also invited her to come along as he went clothes shopping at a nearby hotel.

She says she repeatedly said no and eventually, Hoffman left without her.

Afterward, she says Schisgal passed on the project, saying, "Look, we’re not really interested in your play, because it’s too film noir-ish."

Afterward, she called her agent Mary Meagher (who died in 2006) and told her what happened.

“She said that she didn’t want me to think that it was something I had done,” the playwright recounted. “She had heard rumors about him for years.”

Riss Gatsiounis, who went on to write for A&E's The Killing and CW's Reign, said the incident "stayed with me for a long time," causing her to wonder if she'd let an important career opportunity slip through her fingers by saying no to her hero.

She told Variety, “It was one voice in my head saying, ‘I was such an idiot. I should have just gone.’ And the other voice in my head saying, ‘Well, clearly he just wasn’t interested [in the play]. Why don’t you just realize he just wasn’t interested?'”

Hoffman's representative did not immediately respond to USA TODAY's request for comment.

A USA TODAY email message to Schisgal's listed representative was returned as undeliverable, although another representative told Variety, “Dustin Hoffman and I took many meetings with writers and playwrights over many years. I have no recollection of this meeting or of any of the behavior or actions described.”
