David Caruso Wiki Biography

Davis Stephen Caruso was born in New York in 1956 and in 2014 has estimated net worth of $35 million. He has made his career as an actor and film producer in the USA, and has appeared in many well-known movies. David is a son of Joan and Charles Caruso. His mother Joan worked as a librarian while his father was a magazine and newspaper editor. Charles Caruso left the family when David was only 2 years old and since then, as the actor says, he had to father himself. As a kid Caruso attended Our Lady Queen of Martyrs Catholic School which was located in Forest Hills. Later he studied at Archbishop Molloy High School and graduated in 1974.

His first work as an adult was as an usher in a cinema, and that gave David a chance to see almost every movie which was shown on screen during his work time. Always friendly and cheerful, David Caruso was in a great relationship with all his co-workers and they even tried to make their job funnier playing the movie scenes in the back of the theatre. Thanks to his first job, Caruso started to admire some famous American actors such as James Francis (Jimmy) Cagney and Humphrey Bogart which later had some influence on his acting.

His professional acting career Caruso began in 1984 in the film “Thief of Hearts” which became known in the USA and Europe. After such a great performance, in 1995 he even won the best film actor Emmy after appearing in more Hollywood films.  But his most known role for everyone still is the famous role of Lieutenant Horatio Caine from the show called “CSI: Miami”. For every episode of the show David, earned 375,000 dollars and that has become the main source of Caruso net worth, which is currently $35 million. During his career Caruso has also appeared in movies “First Blood”, “China Girl”, Blue City” and “An Officer and a Gentleman”. His first TV shows were “Crime Story” and “Hill Street Blues”.

David Caruso proved he isn’t only a talented actor, but also a good businessman. He is a founder of LexiconDigital.tv and DavidCarusoTelevision.tv. Moreover, he is one of the co-owners of Steam of Sunset and South Miami Clothing store.

David Caruso has been married three times, and all three marriages were unsuccessful. His first wife was an actress Cheri Maugans, best known for her roles in “Friday the 13th Part III” and “Tucker’s Witch”, but the couple divorced in 1984 after five years of living together. David’s second wife Rache Ticotin was also an actress, who appeared in the movies “Fort Apache”, “The Bronx” and also in the NBC legal drama “Law & Order: Los Angeles” as Lt. Arleen Gnzales. The couple had a daughter named Greta, but divorced after six years in 1989. Caruso’s third wife was Margaret Buckley, but this marriage also ended in divorce in 2007, and today David Caruso is single.

David Caruso Quotes

  • [on doing movies after NYPD Blue (1993)] It really comes down to the fact that, because I was perceived as a bad guy for leaving the show, I think people were rooting against the movies. That was really unfortunate.
  • I was a guy who abandoned a TV show. I didn’t care about people. They didn’t want to see good things happen to me.
  • If you’re not willing to risk, there are no rewards.
  • [on his successful comeback in Hollywood, as the star of CSI: Miami (2002)] For somebody who fell to the place that I fell in terms of unemployment and a damaged reputation, the fact that this town was willing to give me another chance is incredible.
  • NYPD Blue (1993) will not be successful when I leave.
  • There have been times when it’s been hard for me to find work. I’m still a young man and I have a lot to give. If I don’t get any more chances on a major level, there’s not much I can do about it.
