Thomas Gibson Net Worth $15 Million
Thomas Gibson was educated at Bishop England High School, and then graduated from the College of Charleston in 1981. He did not lose his interest in studies, and with encouragement he applied to the Juilliard School in New York City, where he was granted a scholarship, so that in 1985 he graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. Thomas had begun acting when he was very young, in elementary school and in Charleston children’s theater, but his professional career started with debuting in the New York Shakespeare Festival and the Charleston Public Theatre in 1985.
For the next 10 years he spent time working on Broadway, where he performed in various genres of plays, by Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, Molière etc, which appearances were the start of his net worth rising, before beginning his career on television in 1987 in CBS’ legal drama “Leg Work”, then taking a role in “Lincoln“ in 1988. Both of these films contributed to his net worth.
1992 was the year for Gibson’s big screen debut in “Far and Away”, in which he took the role of Stephen Chase. Then followed “Love and Human Remains” in 1993. From 1994 to 1998 he was largely occupied portraying Daniel Nyland in 70 episodes of the TV series “Chicago Hope”, and became popular and widely known. The other outstanding role – for which Thomas Gibson was actually twice nominated for a Golden Globe Award – was that of Greg Montgomery in over 100 episodes of the TV series “Dharma and Greg”(1997-2002). Since 2005, Thomas has been a regular in the TV series “Criminal Minds“, including directing several episodes, which has clearly contributed a significant amount to Gibson’s net worth, building on his salaries from the previously mentioned roles.
Concurrently, Thomas Gibson has appeared in almost 10 other big screen productions including “Son of Batman“, and TV productions such as “Two -and-a-Half Men“, and most recently he voiced Joseph in the animated film “Axis” in early 2017, all of which have added steadily to his net worth.
In his personal life, Thomas Gibson married Christine in 1993, and they have three children of whom Travis has started his actor career by taking a role in Season 10 of “Criminal Minds”. Due to his supposed relationship with an un-named “other woman“, the couple apparently divorced, finally, in 2015, although they are believed to be still living in the same house in San Antonio, Texas, supposedly in order to provide a better life for their children.
