Ben Woolf Net Worth $11 million


Ben was one of two children of Marcy Luikart and Nicholas Woolf. While growing up in Fairfield, Iowa, he was diagnosed with pituitary dwarfism, resulting in his full height of just 4′ 3½” (around 1.31 m). He attended Fairfield City College from which he graduated, earning his degree in early childhood education. Alongside his parents and his sister, in 1999 Ben relocated to Santa Barbara, California, where he began his professional career as a pre-school teacher for the US Department of Health and Human Services’ Head Start program in the city of Goleta. This engagement provided the basis for Ben Woolf’s net worth.

Although he debuted on television in 2007, appearing in two episodes of the “TV face” TV series, Ben’s acting career didn’t officially begin ’til 2010, when he abandoned his teaching job and transferred to Los Angeles, California, in order to pursue his acting career full time. His first, uncredited Hollywood role occurred in the 2010 horror movie “Insidious”, but was followed by a real breakthrough in his career in 2011 when he was cast for the role of Infantata in the first season of “American Horror Story” television series. This recurring role of the murderous ghost not only that raised Ben Woolf’s popularity but it also further deepened his wealth.

In the course of the next several year, Ben managed to maintain a continuous streak of acting engagements, honing his performing skills in movies such as “Woogie” (2012), “Unlucky Charms” and “Dead Kansas” both in 2013, as well as in the “Eagleheart’ TV series. In 2014, Woolf was cast as Meep in the fourth season of Primetime Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning AHS franchise, entitled “American Horror Story: Freak Show”. Later that year, Ben also appeared in the role of Himmler in Mick Davis’ thriller movie “Haunting Charles Manson”. Doubtlessly, all these ventures helped Ben Woolf to add a significant sum to the total of his net worth.

Among Ben Woolf’s last engagements were appearances in the “TMI Hollywood” TV series, and the 2015 comical horror movie “Tales of Halloween”. For his great contribution to the horror genre, he was rewarded with the Russian Horror Film Award in January 2015. His life and professional acting career were tragically ended in 2015 when he was hit in the head by a passing car’s side mirror while jaywalking on 19th February. Four days later, Ben Woolf passed away due to a stroke caused by the severe head injury, at Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, at the age of just 34, in Los Angeles, California.

He is survived by his parents and sister, leaving no descendants behind.
