The art world is still reeling from the looting scandal at the Los Angeles-based Getty Museum, which first came to light in 2006. We talk with one of the reporters who broke the story, Jason Felch, co-author of “Chasing Aphrodite: The Hunt for Looted Antiquities at the World’s Richest Museum.” We also talk to the man who helped foil the theft of an original Picasso artwork from a Geary Street gallery last week.

Guests:

Jason Felch, investigative reporter with the Los Angeles Times and co-author of "Chasing Aphrodite"

Lee Housekeeper, San Francisco press agent
