Jenna Fischer Wiki Biography

Jenna Fischer, also known as Regina Mare Fischer, Jenna and Jenna Fischer, is an American actress, film director and TV producer who was able to accumulate an estimated net worth as amazingly high as $15 million. One of her best known roles is as Pam Beesly from a sitcom “The Office”, but Fischer’s net worth was also raised thanks to some other films, such as “Hall Pass”, “Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story”, “Blades of Glory” and “The Promotion”. Nowadays Regina is considered to be one of the richest celebrities from the United States, who has been able to gain a huge amount of net worth thanks to her amazing acting talent.

Jenna Fischer Net Worth $15 Million

Jenna Fischer was raised in St. Louis, Missouri, United States, but was born in Fort Wayne, located in Indiana. Together with her sister Jenna, she was raised by a teacher in school and an engineer. Jenna started to earn her own net worth at a very young age – only as a six years old girl she was already testing herself as an actress. As a teenager Jenna studied at Nerinx Hall High School and later attended Truman State University. After finishing her studies and receiving a degree Jenna started to work hard to establish her future life in the world of show business. However, her first roles were not so successful or as notable as she had hoped, but her great breakthrough was made in 2004, when “LolliLove” was released. This movie was not only directed by Jenna, she also wrote the screenplay and even starred in a main role together with other famous actors, such as Jason Segel, Judy Greer and James Gunn.

The next time Jenna Fischer’s net worth rose rapidly was in 2007, when she starred in a movie directed by Jake Kasdan. The movie was entitled “Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story” and gained huge popularity. Of course, this was one of the most successful appearances in Jenna’s career, and after this amazing performance no one could question how rich Jenna Fischer is. Just one year later Jenna’s net worth was increased again, this time thanks to the movie “The Promotion” directed by Steven Conrad.

Jenna Fischer is known also as a TV star who has appeared in numerous TV shows. She made her debut on TV in 2001, when performing in one episode of “Undeclared”. Of course, this appearance did not make any huge addition to her net worth, and neither did several other shows, such as “Cold Case”, “What I Like About You”, “Miss Match” or “Six Feet Under”. The true popularity came to Jenna F. when she starred in the famous “The Office” playing Pam Beesly. There she appeared in 187 episodes of the show and played one of the main roles. This was another great success of Jenna, as the show was aired for 8 years, from 2005 and until year 2013.

So now you know why Jenna’s net worth is so huge.

Quote
1 Honestly it would be great to get to play Pam for a long, long time…I don’t have real big aspirations to be a movie star. I would love to be on a long-running hit TV show. You end up playing a defining role.
2 I had real potential. But my goal was to be…adequate. I didn’t want to be an extraordinary receptionist, because I didn’t ever want to be promoted, or be given more work. My time was really valuable to me. For example, I could type 80 words per minute, but I wouldn’t tell people that, so when my boss would give me work, he would think it’d take two hours, but it would really only take about thirty minutes. So I’d have, like, ninety minutes of fun time. I got it all done, I just did it…real slow.
3 I had this crazy job, though, when I first got to Los Angeles…I answered this ad in the back of the newspaper to be a telephone psychic, and I did that for two days. I called up this guy, and…this is how hard it was to get this job: He said, ‘So, uh, do you feel intuitive from time to time?’ And I was like, ‘Yea, sure, I feel intuitive.’ He said, ‘Do you read Tarot cards?’ And I said, ‘I DO!’ and I didn’t. – on her stint as a telephone psychic.
4 All the rehearsals were in this guy’s penthouse. And I swear – I kept going to rehearsal. And I learned my song, and it was about a truck stop…and I noticed that none of the other girls were singing with me, but they did walk by in lingerie…and I’m like, ‘Huh, weird!'” – on being the sixth member of the International Spice Girls, which turned out to be a front for a call-girl service.
5 [re receiving the call from casting director Allison Jones for The Office (2005)] She goes, ‘Dare to BORE me.’ And I’m like, ‘Really?’ I’m like, ‘I’ll bore you. I will seriously, I will go and I will be ugly, and I will bore you.’ Am I selling my show? Ugly, boring people – check it out!
