Though he technically lives in Greenwich, Connecticut, few people have been around Hollywood longer than producer/director and former Happy Days star Ron Howard. A prolific Democratic donor in the ’08 cycle, Howard gave to both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, as well as to a slew of state parties and national committees. He gave the maximum allowed donation to the DNC in both 2009 and 2010 and is continuing to donate to Obama’s reelection and attend fundraisers with the President.
