Judd Seymore Hirsch Wiki Biography

Judd Seymore Hirsch was born on 15 March 1935, in The Bronx, New York City, USA, of German-Jewish (father), and English and Dutch-Jewish (mother) descent. He is an actor perhaps still best known for appearing in the comedy television series “Taxi” from 1978 to 1983. He has also starred in “Dear John”, “NUMB3RS” and “A Beautiful Mind”. All of his efforts have helped put his net worth to where it is today.

How rich is Judd Hirsch? As of late-2016, sources inform us of a net worth that is at $12 million, mostly earned through a successful career in acting. He’s won several awards over the course of his career, and all of these achievements have helped ensure the position of his wealth.

Hirsch attended DeWitt Clinton High School and matriculated in 1952, then attended the City College of New York and graduated with a degree in physics. After completing his studies, he then served a tour in the United States Army before working as an engineer for Westinghouse. Soon, he would discover acting work through theatre.

Judd’s work would then extend from stage to films and television. He gave notable performances in all platforms though he had more television appearances during the 1970s. He then became part of “Taxi” which made him very popular and started the increase of his net worth significantly. He won an Emmy Award twice for his role, before becoming part of another popular sitcom – “Dear John” – and in 1989, he would win a Golden Globe Award for his performance there before starring in the short lived “George and Leo” with Bob Newhart. He also became part of “Delvecchi” which lasted for a season. Still, his net worth was rising.

While doing these numerous television roles, he was cast in the film “Ordinary People” for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.

Other films that he was a part of include “Running on Empty”, “Without a Trace”, and “The Goodbye People”. This string of films would help Judd’s net worth rise considerably. In 1996, he was cast in “Independence Day” as the father of Jeff Goldblum’s character, and was then cast in 2001’s “A Beautiful Mind”. Four years later, he was cast in “NUMB3RS” as Alan Eppes, which he would stay in for five years, before then starring in the acclaimed “Conversations with My Father” which won Judd a Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play. He also won a Tony Award for “I’m Not Rappaport” on stage in 1986.

Some of Hirsch’s latest projects include “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit”, “Warehouse 13”, and “Studio 60 on the Sunset Trip”. He has also done voice work for animated programs such as “American Dad!” and “Tom Goes to the Mayor”. He reprised his “Taxi” role in “Man on the Moon” which starred Jim Carrey, and also appeared in the television series “Forever”, besides making a guest appearance in “The Big Bang Theory” as Leonard’s father.

For his personal life, it is known that Judd was married to Elisa Sadaune from 1956 to 1967 and they have a son. His second marriage was to fashion designer Bonnie Sue Chalkin, from 1992 to 2005; they have two children.
