The chief operating officer of the High Museum of Art – an institution that featured in “The Resident” and “Black Panther” – has resigned after $600,000 was allegedly stolen, according to reports.
Brady Lum allegedly stole the funds over three to four years and a probe into the missing money was launched in early December after discrepancies were spotted on the Atlanta museum’s finance sheets, as reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Hala Moddelmog – the president of Woodruff, the company which oversees the High – suspects the executive, who earned $312,374 for his role and was the fifth-highest paid employee, acted alone before claiming he abused his role.
“We believe that Lum abused his executive level position at the High to access the money and hide what he did for several years,” she said.
It’s not known where the money was stolen f
