Singer Bette Midler, after counting her pennies and donating $3,473 to the ERA, puts the pinch on actor Jack Nicholson yelling, “Jack, you’re richer than all of us,” during an afternoon party in support of the Equal Rights Amendment at the home of actress Joan Hackett in Beverly Hills, April 10, 1978. The gathering of Hollywood’s in-crowd raised $50,000 to help ratify the ERA in three more states. “Star Wars” star Mark Hamill, seated on the floor, was also in attendance.
