Clint Eastwood – Worth $375 Million
When imagining the determined and fierce cowboy of the Wild West riding into town there’s usually one actor we picture on top of that horse. Clint Eastwood has practically become an American folk hero with his infamous drawl combined with his ability to steal a scene as he struck fear into the lawless villain’s heart. Oddly enough, that clenched jaw way he has of speaking was actually initially criticized by studio heads when he first got into the movie business.

Angie Dickinson – Worth $30 Million
Angie Dickinson first appeared on screen in the 1950s, and although she was relegated to smaller supporter roles at first, it was clear to many audiences that she would soon become a leading lady. Sure enough, in 1959, Dickinson got her first big role in the 1959 film Rio Bravo, playing the one named character of Feathers. Afterwards she became one of the 1960s leading ladies, most recognizable for her work in Gun The Man Down and Dressed to Kill.

Arlene Golonka – Worth $5 Million
When thinking of the carefree blonde, both eccentric in her wild and energetic personality while carrying a magnetism that attracts everyone, Arlene Golanka fits that image.

Although her career began in the late ’60s it continued on for 30 years before Golanka retired to teach aspiring young actors instead.

Axl Rose – Worth $200 Million
It’s possible that someone who has spent their whole lives living under a rock might not have heard of Axl Rose or his titular band, Guns N’ Roses, but just hearing that name likely gives one the impression of a hard rocker who does it for the love of the music. Indeed that does apply to Rose, who has been considered to be the support that kept this hard rock band aloft throughout their many years of rock n’ roll.
![](https://d35kl8qmgo8bev.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/11064012/6.jpg)
Alain Delon – Worth $200 Million
Many in America haven’t heard about him, even during his peak throughout much of the 1960s, but if those Americans had taken a trip across the Atlantic Ocean they would’ve likely seen Alain Delon’s name across billboards from France to Japan. This French actor was very much a sex symbol of the era, whose critical acclaim earned him popularity across Europe and, oddly enough, a massive following in Japan. But even with all that Delon never made it in Hollywood.

Cassandra Peterson – Worth $3 Million
Even as a little girl, Cassandra Peterson refused to be pigeonholed into what was considered “girly” at the time. She refused to play with Barbie dolls, preferring the mystery and thrill of horror shows instead. During her 20s, she took her talents to the stage where she was the lead singer to several rock bands from Italy. But that didn’t last forever, as the 1980s came steaming in so did Peterson’s career after she landed her most iconic role, Elvira.

Gladys Knight – Worth $28 Million
Michael Jackson might be the King of Pop, and James Brown has been called the Godfather of Soul, but these titles pale in comparison to that of the talented Gladys Knight who is known to her fans as the Empress of Soul. It’s no surprise why when looking at her legacy. As an artist she was constantly at the top of the charts for 3 long decades, the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s.

Henry Winkler – Worth $30 Million
When Henry Winkler first appeared on Happy Days it was thought of as just another television sitcom. But Winkler’s performance as the unforgettable Arthur “The Fonz” Fonzarelli brought that series to critical acclaim and made it the most watched show on television during its time. For Winkler himself, that meant that he had made it, and he was subsequently honored with two Golden Globes. This is on top of giving us a TV character that will likely never be forgotten.

Jack Nicholson – Worth $400 Million
There’s not a lot of other ways to say this, but Jack Nicholson is a living legend.

Many of her works can be read in book form or simply as articles and blog posts.

Jane Powell – Worth $10 Million
If there’s one company who Jane Powell owes her success to that company would likely be the Hollywood studio giant, MGM.

Jayne Kennedy – Worth $2 Million
In the 1980s it was Coca Cola, yes the same Coca Cola of all the fizzy soft drinks, that declared Jayne Kennedy to be “the most admired black woman in America.” It’s not hard for us to see why the company thought that. Kennedy was starting out winning beauty pageants, even the coveted title of Miss Ohio. After that her diverse career spoke to her many talents. Throughout her career Kennedy worked at everything, from TV personality, to sports broadcaster.

Joan Collins – Worth $30 Million
It’s unlikely anyone seeing nine-year-old Joan Collins take on her first acting role imagined that she would be remembered as a Hollywood Golden Age icon. That being said here she is and here we are and it’s all because of her incredible on screen performances. Her Hollywood movie list is impressive, but her crowning accomplishment is arguably as the character Alexis Colby in the television drama Dynasty. That series ended the long-running reign of TV champion Dallas.

Karen Grassle – Worth $500,000

Katharine Ross – Worth $5 Million
Katharine Ross has had the privilege to star in some of the biggest films in Hollywood’s Golden Age.

For her subsequent works she was awarded both a Golden Globe and a BAFTA showcasing how talented she is.

Richard Keith – Worth $1 Million
Even though his name is likely to remind audiences of legendary guitarist Keith Richards, Richard Keith didn’t become a star from his music but rather from his role as Little Ricky in the incredibly popular I Love Lucy series.

Keith Thibodeaux, he changed it after finding it was too hard for others to pronounce.

Lee Majors – Worth $15 Million
Known best for his role as Colonel Steve Austin in The Six Million Dollar Man, Lee Majors could conceivably star in a movie about himself, but this movie would have to be called The Fifteen Million Dollar Man.

Max Baer Jr. – $50 Million
There’s something that most actors, even some of the best, fear. That something is of course, typecasting, or when an actor is so good at playing a particular role or a particular character that his or her career revolves around them recreating that character for other roles. While Max Baer Jr. had praise heaped upon him for his role as the dim-witted Jethro Bodine in the incredibly popular television series, The Beverly Hillbillies, he was typecast into that role.

Morgan Freeman – Worth $20 Million
Known for his deep commanding voice on film, Morgan Freeman has become one of the most recognizable actors in Hollywood today. But for a long time it seemed that Freeman wasn’t going to make it in show business. Even though he had been acting since 1964, Freeman didn’t catch his big break until 1987 when he was given his first Oscar nomination. Even then, it arguably wasn’t until his role in The Shawshank Redemption that he became a real star.
