Bonnie Hunt Net Worth $10 Million

Bonnie Hunt is a daughter of Alice E. Hunt, a homemaker, and Robert Edward Hunt, an electrician, who are of Irish, Belgian, and Polish descent, and she has three older brothers, two older sisters and a younger sister. Hunt grew up in Chicago and went to the Catholic schools St. Ferdinand Grammar School and Notre Dame High School for Girls.

Bonnie worked initially as an oncology nurse at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago in 1982, and two years after, together with Holly Wortell, Andy Miller, and John Gripentrog, she co-founded An Impulsive Thing – an improvisational comedy troupe. She was also a member of Chicago’s improvisational comedy enterprise called The Second City, after joining them in 1986.

Hunt had her on-screen debut in Barry Levinson’s Oscar-winning drama “Rain Man” (1988) starring Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise. Later, she played Carol Anne Smithson in 26 episodes of the comedy series “Grand” in 1990, and as Gwen Davis in 18 episodes of “Davis Rules” from 1991 to 1992. In 1992, Hunt starred in “Beethoven”, and she also played a lead role in its sequel “Beethoven’s 2nd” in 1993. She appeared in Ivan Reitman’s Oscar-nominated romantic comedy “Dave” (1993) starring Kevin Kline, Sigourney Weaver, and Frank Langella, and in “Only You” (1994) with Marisa Tomei and Robert Downey Jr. Her net worth was well established.

In the mid-‘90s, Hunt had roles in “Now and Then” (1995) with Christina Ricci, Demi Moore, Rosie O’Donnell, and Melanie Griffith, and “Jumanji” (1995) starring Robin Williams, increasing her net worth to a large degree. Bonnie played the title role in the series “Bonnie” from 1995 to 1996, had a part in “Getting Away with Murder” (1996) starring Jack Lemmon, Dan Aykroyd, and Lily Tomlin, and a minor role in “Jerry Maguire” (1996) with Tom Cruise, Cuba Gooding Jr., and Renée Zellweger. By the end of the ‘90s she had appeared in “SUBWAYStories: Tales from the Underground” (1997), “Kissing a Fool” (1998) with David Schwimmer, Jason Lee, and Mili Avital, and gave the voice to Rosie in “A Bug’s Life” (1998). Bonnie ended the decade with roles in Sydney Pollack’s “Random Hearts” (1999) starring Harrison Ford, and Frank Darabont’s “The Green Mile” (1999) with Tom Hanks, Michael Clarke Duncan, and David Morse, increasing further her net worth.

In the early 2000’s, Hunt played in, wrote, and directed the romantic comedy called “Return to Me” (2000) starring David Duchovny and Minnie Driver. She then filmed “Stolen Summer” (2002), played Bonnie Molloy in 44 episodes of “Life with Bonnie” (2002-2004), and appeared in “Cheaper By The Dozen” (2003) with Steve Martin. Hunt continued with “Loggerheads” (2005), “Cheaper By The Dozen 2” (2005), Jeff Garlin’s “I Want Someone To Eat Cheese With” (2006), and Tim Story’s “Hurricane Season” (2009) starring Forest Whitaker. Bonnie concentrated on animated movies lately as she worked in “Toy Story 3” (2010), “Cars 2” (2011), “Monsters University” (2013), and “Zootopia” (2016). She is currently filming “Toy Story 4” which will be released in 2018.

Hunt was nominated for two Golden Globe awards for her role in “Life with Bonnie” in 2003 and 2004, and also earned an Emmy nomination in 2004.

Regarding her personal life, Bonnie Hunt was married to investment banker John Murphy from 1988 to 2006 when they divorced. She doesn’t have any children and is living in Chicago. Hunt is a big Chicago Cubs fan; she has never missed an opening home game since 1977.

Hunt is also a well-known philanthropist, and she supports the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation, of which she is an honorary board member.
