Madeleine Stowe was brought up by Robert Alfred Stowe, a civil engineer, and Mireya Maria, who was from a prominent political family in Costa Rica. She spent her childhood in Eagle Rock, LA; while she was in her teens, she attended piano classes, however, when her teacher died, she quit, and devoted herself to education. Thus, she enrolled at the University of Southern California to study Journalism and Cinema.

Before she earned her debut on-screen appearance, Madeleine appeared regularly at the Solaris, a theater located in Beverly Hills. However, she was spotted by a movie agent, and in 1978 made her debut appearance in the TV series “Baretta”. By the end of the 1970s, she had made several appearances, securing roles in such productions as “The Amazing Spider-Man” (1978), “The Deerslayer” (1978), and “Barnaby Jones” (1979), all of which added to her net worth.

In the 1980s she featured in the TV series “Little House on the Prairie”, and the following year Madeleine appeared in the film “Gangster Wars”. In 1987 came her breakout role of Maria McGuire in the film “Stakeout”, with Richard Dreyfuss, and Emilio Estevez alongside her in lead roles. After the success of that film, Madeleine`s career has gone only upwards, and so has her net worth. During the late ’80s, she appeared also in films “Tropical Snow” (1988), and “Worth Winning” (1989), among others, all of which added to her net worth.

Her career reached a whole new level in the 1990s, as she featured more and more in popular films, such as “Closet Land” (1991) with Alan Rickman, “Unlawful Entry” (1992) with Ray Liotta and Kurt Russell, and “The Last of the Mohicans” (1992) alongside Daniel Day-Lewis and Russell Means. In 1995 she starred in the film directed by Terry Gilliam, “Twelve Monkeys”, appearing alongside such star actors as Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt. Before the end of the 1990s, she also featured in films such as “Playing by Heart” (1998), “Bad Girls” (1994), and “The General’s Daughter” (1999), among others, all of which added to her net worth.

The 2000s didn`t change much for Madeleine, as she continued successfully with her career, featuring in some of high profile films such as “We Were Soldiers” (2002), alongside Mel Gibson, and “Avenging Angelo” (2002) with Sylvester Stallone. Furthermore, she appeared in “The Christmas Hope” (2009), and since 2011 she has been a star of the TV series “Revenge” (2011-2015), alongside Emily VanCamp, increasing further her net worth.

Thanks to her talents, Madeleine has received several prestigious nominations and awards, including the nomination for the Golden Globe Award in the category of Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series, for her work on “Revenge”.

Speaking about her personal life, Madeleine Stowe has been married to Brian Benben since August 1986; the couple has a daughter, and live on their cattle ranch outside of Fredericksburg, Texas.
