Fowlie, who has also had roles in The Other Two and English Teacher, posted on Instagram on Saturday, “My sister is still missing. This is not like her, she’s never gone off the grid like this.” Fowlie invited followers to share his sister’s photo online and print copies of the flyer and post them around L.A. “Someone has seen her or knows something,” he said. Fowlie said he last heard from his sister on Nov. 26.
