Catherine Keener’s Net Worth: $8 million

After attending Monsignor Edward Pace High School and graduating from Wheaton College with a major in English and history, where she also participated in a Theatre course, Keener ventured into her first theatre production in the college in the play “Uncommon Women and Others” before graduating in 1983.

Keener’s debut roles were in the television series “Ohara” (1987-1988), and she made her film debut in “About Last Night…” the year before. Despite initial struggles, her breakthrough came after “Survival Quest” in 1989. After guest appearances in TV series such as “Seinfeld” and starring in “Johnny Suede” alongside the then relatively unknown Brad Pitt, her net worth began to increase significantly. She received her first Independent Spirit Award nomination for her performance in the film. Subsequently, she appeared in “Living in Oblivion” before earning another Independent Spirit Award nomination for her role in “Walking and Talking”.

In 2000, Keener received her first Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress in “Being John Malkovich”. She continued her collaboration with Holofcener in “Lovely and Amazing”, garnering her third Independent Spirit Award nomination. This paved the way for more opportunities, including co-starring with Edward Norton in “Burn This” and a role in “Simone” alongside Al Pacino. She starred with Daniel Day-Lewis in “The Ballad of Jack and Rose” in 2005, and played Steve Carell’s love interest in “The 40-Year-Old Virgin”. The same year, she earned numerous awards for her role in “Capote”, securing a second Oscar nomination. These successes further boosted her net worth.

In 2007, Keener was part of “Into the Wild”, a critically acclaimed adaptation of the book of the same name. The following year, she was cast in the television movie “An American Crime”, which earned her an Emmy Award nomination. In 2012, she appeared in “A Late Quartet” before playing the role of Percy Jackson’s mother in “Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief”. In 2015, she starred in the miniseries “Show Me a Hero”, adapted from a book. Some of her latest projects include the independent film “Unless”, and the podcast series “Homecoming”, further adding to her net worth.

In her personal life, Catherine married actor Dermot Mulroney in 1990, and they have a son before divorcing in 2007.

1Often collaborates with Nicole Holofcener and Spike Jonze
#Quote
1On the day I got nominated, I had jury duty for a D.U.I. case. Reporting to jury duty as scheduled that morning gave me perspective. It’s always good to go sit in a jury for a D.U.I. charge if you start feeling too important.
2Luck favors the prepared.
3I enjoy being a supporting actress. I like to come and go in the film. There are few interesting lead characters, and they often depend on physical appearance, which I’m not interested in. Playing many diverse characters allows me to be in the moment without the pressure of being cast for my physicality.
4One director said I wasn’t sexy and it was hard to accept. It led me to leave town for two months with my tail between my legs. But I learned that even if I’m not considered their idea of sexy, I still have worth.
