The event, a $35,800-per-person dinner at the Hancock Park home of Hitch producer James Lassiter and his wife, Mai, will take place in the late afternoon. Immediately following is Obama's Latino fundraising gala at the nearby home of Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas.

Obama will go "table to table, sitting and conversing with each group of guests. He will address the group as a whole, informally and will take several questions from guests." Candid photos will be taken with all dinner guests.

The two events are expected to raise more than $1 million for the Obama re-election campaign.

The addition of the Lassiter event comes in the wake Thursday's announcement that the Obama re-election campaign and the Democratic National Committee raised more than $70 million during the third quarter of this year. At least 15 percent of the donations came from California, officials said. More details on Obama's third-quarter fund-raising efforts are expected in the coming days.
