My friend, Sharon (Frontiero) was interviewed for this movie. She was represented by RBG at the Supreme Court in her suit against the Air Force for denying her the same dependent's allowance for her husband that her male counterparts received for their wives.

Argued January, 1973. Decided May 14, 1973. 8-1 victory for Sharon and RBG. Two most amazing women.
