BERNADETTE PETERS | $40 MILLION

Bernadette Peters was already exposed to Hollywood’s bright lights even before she even thought of worrying about student loans. Beginning her career as a child actress, Bernadette first appeared on Juvenile Jury when she was around three years old, followed by Name That Tune and The Horn and Hardart Children’s Hour when she was five.

With her career spanning over five decades at this point, Bernadette is often known for her performance in stage plays, including titles such as Mack and Mabel, Song and Dance, Into the Woods, and A Little Night Music. Along the way, she also made a couple of Grammy-nominated music albums and wrote children’s books in support of Broadway Barks, a yearly charity event she founded with fellow actress and friend Mary Tyler Moore. Thanks to her passion for sharing her talents and fortune, Bernadette now has a net worth of $40 million.
