So just how rich is John Williams?  Sources have estimated that his net worth is over $100 million, accumulated during a career in music that has spanned more than 60 years.

John  Williams’ father, Johnny was a jazz percussionist, so John had a start in music. The family moved to Los Angeles in 1948, where John attended North Hollywood High School, and then studied at UCLA, and  privately with the Italian composer Mario Castelnuovo Tedesco. In 1952, Williams was drafted into the US Air Force, where he conducted and arranged music for the US Air Force Band.

Following Air Force service,  in 1955 Williams moved to New York City and entered the Juillard School where he studied piano with Rosina Lhevinne, also working in many clubs and studios as a jazz pianist, most notably with composer Henry Mancini/ During the early 1960s, he served as music arranger and bandleader for a series of popular music albums with the famous singer Frankie Laine. These activities were a solid if unspectacular start to Williams’ net worth.
