Nancy Cartwright’s net worth, biography, fact, career, awards and life story

Nancy Cartwright Net Worth and Salary: Nancy Cartwright is an American film and television actress, comedian and voice artist who has a net worth of $80 million dollars. Nancy Cartwright was born October 25, 1957 in Dayton, Ohio. She is best known for her long-running role as Bart Simpson on the animated television series The Simpsons. Cartwright voices other characters for the show, including Nelson Muntz, Ralph Wiggum, Todd Flanders, Kearney and Database. She made her film debut in the It’s A Good Life segment of 1983’s Twilight Zone the Movie. Another notable role came two years later in the historical adventure Flesh + Blood (1985) starring Jennifer Jason Leigh. In 1998, she returned to the big screen with a small role as a secretary in Godzilla. Cartwright’s small screen work turned out to be her niche and she went on to appear in several TV-movies and guest star on a number of series. In 1982, she made her debut in the title role of a young girl wrongly institutionalized in the CBS TV biopic Marian Rose White. She followed up with a steady stream of telefilms while also continuing her plentiful voice work. In 1987, a new chapter began in Cartwright’s professional career when she landed the role of the ten-year-old Bart Simpson character, a shar- tongued mischief-maker for animated segments of The Tracey Ullman Show. In 2000, Cartwright published her autobiography, My Life as a 10-Year-Old Boy. Laura A. Bischoff of the Dayton Daily News commented that the book was the “ultimate insider’s guide to The Simpsons” but critics complained that the book lacked interesting stories and was aimed mostly at fans of The Simpsons. Cartwright adapted My Life as a 10-Year-Old Boy into a one-woman play in 2004; the play received lackluster reviews. In 2001, she founded the production company SportsBlast and created an online animated series called The Kellys. The series was focused on racing; Cartwright voices a seven-year-old named Chip Kelly. In 2002, SportsBlast received a Silver Remi Award from the WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival for The Kellys. According to their latest contract, each principal voice actor on The Simpsons makes $300,000 per episode. That translates into around $7 million per season.
