Maybe he was a striking actor from LA?

Harrison Ford Donation

Harrison Ford is supporting the strike of the Screen Actor's Guild. His 100K should come in handy for the nearly-bankrupt effort. Here's a clip of the Variety article with the credit going to TJ for the lead:
Harrison Ford, in a major show of support for striking union actors, has matched Kevin Spacey's $100,000 donation to aid union members who have exhausted their financial resources during the five-month work stoppage.
Ford designated the donation for the strike relief fund of the Screen Actors Guild Foundation, equaling Spacey's gift as the largest so far.

SAG launched the fund last month with a $500,000 endowment, with other donations coming from Jay Leno, George Clooney, Britney Spears and 'N Sync.

""We're thrilled by this extremely generous contribution by Mr. Ford,'' foundation executive director Marcia Smith said. ''Many of our members haven't worked since before the strike started and have nowhere to turn except for the strike relief fund.''
