(CNN) Star Wars director J.J. Abrams, actor Ben Affleck, and Grey's Anatomy creator/showrunner Shonda Rhimes all gave money to California Sen. Kamala Harris in the opening months of her presidential campaign -- just a few of the many famous names scattered throughout Harris' and other 2020 Democrats' first quarter fundraising reports released this week. Hollywood readily opened their wallets for Harris, their home state senator, who raised more than $12 million total in the first three months of the year. Abrams, Affleck and Rhimes all gave Harris maximum contributions of $2,800, along with legendary music producer Quincy Jones, Hollywood super-agent Ari Emanuel and Dreamworks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg. Actress Eva Longoria Baston contributed $5,400 to Harris, maxing out for both the primary and, should Harris secure the nomination, the general election. But Harris wasn't the only 2020 Democrat to receive campaign contributions from the rich and the famous.
