Actress occupation money in the 2008 FEC cycle
$932,671 in itemized individual contributions is the FEC.gov join between the occupation ACTRESS and the 2008 election cycle. That cell covers 486 contributions from 263 donors. The occupation’s all-cycle total is $8,674,475, so 2008 is 10.8% of the labeled roll. This page is the occupation-and-cycle match, not a SAG-AFTRA membership file, a studio PAC, or a credits database.

Actress as occupation, 2008 as the cycle
Two FEC fields define the cell: occupation ACTRESS and election cycle 2008. Matching rows sum to $932,671, 486 contributions, and 263 donors. ACTRESS in 2008 is a performing-arts title stored separately from ACTOR. FEC.gov does not merge the two strings. The occupation hub is $8,674,475 across every cycle in the aggregate. The 2008 cycle hub mixes every other occupation that used that year. Neither hub restates this intersection; this tie page exists because the two dimensions meet.
2008’s dollar share is 10.8% ($932,671 of $8,674,475). The remainder, $7,741,804, sits in other cycles on the occupation hub. Hundreds of donor keys and hundreds of lines is a mid-scale entertainment-title cell, thinner than the 2008 Actor join. Correlation between a job title and a two-year FEC window is a reporting overlap, not causation of an election outcome. Itemized individual receipts are the coverage. Unitemized money never appears in $932,671.
The ACTRESS string across every cycle on file
$8,674,475 is the occupation-side denominator. It is not limited to 2008. Actor, Entertainer, and Producer are other occupation keys if stored separately. Adding those keys to $8,674,475 would be a researcher-built recode, not this table. Occupation labels are filer-entered on itemized individual receipts.
Open Actress donations for the $8,674,475 roll. Open the 2008 election cycle hub for every occupation in that window. All occupations and All FEC ties place this pair beside other occupation-cycle pages without combining dollar figures.
263 donors and a four-figure mean gift
Dividing $932,671 by 486 contributions yields about $1,919 per gift. Dividing by 263 donors yields about $3,546 per donor. Gifts per donor average about 1.8 (486 ÷ 263). Those ratios describe this string in 2008, not payroll at firms that employ people with similar titles.
263 is a donor-key count inside the occupation × cycle aggregate, not a headcount of everyone who held the job in 2008. Repeat itemization, couples filing separately, and people who used the string on some receipts but not others all move the 263 figure. The cycle hub still holds every other occupation’s 2008 receipts beside this cell. Adding the 2008 Actor cell to this Actress figure would mix two occupation keys. Quote ACTRESS and 2008 together.
What Actress dollars in 2008 are not
A 10.8% share of Actress-coded dollars from 2008 does not mean the occupation caused those gifts, and it does not mean people with that title funded a policy outcome. Occupation and cycle are reported together. The overlap is descriptive. Independent expenditures, committee-to-committee transfers, and unitemized gifts are out of scope.
Federal awards on USAspending.gov are a different ledger. This join does not claim that 2008 donations funded contracts or grants. Quote $932,671 as itemized individual receipts tagged ACTRESS in 2008, source FEC.gov, and stop there.
How to cite Actress × 2008
A complete claim names Actress and 2008, then $932,671, 486 contributions, 263 donors, and 10.8% of $8,674,475, source FEC.gov. Do not convert 263 keys into licensed or employed practitioners. Do not fold independent expenditures or USAspending awards into the cell. Keep both sides of the name—Actress and 2008—whenever the dollars are quoted. Mean gift $1,919 and mean per donor $3,546 travel with those counts; they do not travel with a licensing board.
Occupation hub, 2008 hub, and Actor as a sibling
The occupation hub still holds $7,741,804 outside 2008. Most of the $8,674,475 roll is not this cycle’s cell. This page isolates the overlap for readers who need both the title and the year, not either hub restated. Actor, Entertainer, and Producer are other occupation keys if stored separately. Those titles are not parents of ACTRESS on this page. Gifts per donor in 2008 average about 1.8. That ratio is 486 divided by 263, not a measure of turnout.
