In this Dec. 1, 2005, file photo, Barry Lubin, star of the Big Apple Circus’ “Grandma Goes to Hollywood,” applies powder after applying his clown makeup in his trailer at Damrosch Park in New York’s Lincoln Center. Lubin resigned from the Big Apple Circus following accusations that he pressured a 16-year-old aerialist to pose for pornographic photos. The circus’s chairman, Neil Kahanovitz, told The New York Times on Tuesday, Jan. 23, 2018, that Lubin offered his resignation on Friday shortly after the alleged victim came forward.
