How to add an actor's picture

This actor has no picture associated with IMDB Anything he is in just shows a generic holding icon for a picture. I don't see any edit option for adding a picture. If I select edit cast it just brings me to adding or deleting an incorrect credit. If I click add photos at the top of the profile page it wants to send me to IMDB Pro, as if I am the actor and this is my page. How can I just add a Non copywrite picture so that there is a pic associated with him? Lee Erickson - IMDb

What if the actor is dead and no longer working? Seems rather strange that IMDB has actually added pages with a numerical value when there is an incorrect credit of actors sharing the same name without the actor's input, yet they can't add a picture? The actor has quite a few credits bot no biography at all. He was a child actor that seems to have no record after 1962. There is a photo from one of his films on the page, not sure who put that there , but that picture doesn't follow through to his credit pic when you click on cast in anything he did. Weird that there is zero bio. I just watched him in an old rerun of father knows best playing Buds friend Arty who is a kleptomaniac. Here is a pic from the episode. He is holding a bag of jelly doughnuts he brought for Bud.

Hi @stevepaparatto -

Adding images to name pages requires an IMDbPro membership and a claimed page by the individual or a valid representative - to learn more I encourage you to review our Help Guide.

I hope this helps!
