Some of Damon Thomas’ first production and songwriting engagements include cooperation with R&B producer Kenneth Edmonds, called Babyface, on hit singles These are the Times, performed by Dru Hill as well as Pink’s Most Girls. These involvements provided the basis for Damon Thomas net worth, which at some point in time was apparently $45 million.

In 1999, Damon Thomas teamed up with drummer Harvey Mason, Jr. and they formed The Underdogs, an R&B/pop recording and production duo. Their breakthrough came with a production of Tyrese’s hit single I Like Them Girls, and since then, they have managed to keep up a continuous string of production work which includes collaborations with numerous music stars such as, apart from those already mentioned, Omarion, Donell Jones, R. Kelly, JoJo as well as Chris Brown, Olivia Munn and Ruben Studdard. All these engagements have helped Damon Thomas to establish himself as a competitive music producer, and certainly increase his overall net worth.

Some other notable work of Damon Thomas and his partner also include production work on the soundtrack of the 2006 Broadway musical film adaptation, “Dreamgirls” with Beyoncé Knowles, Jennifer Hudson, Jamie Foxx and Eddie Murphy in the leading roles. In the same year, The Underdogs duo had also produced the song “Never Gonna Break My Faith”, performed by Aretha Franklin and Mary J. Blige, as a part of the original soundtrack of “Bobby” – historical drama directed by Emilio Estevez with Anthony Hopkins, Sharon Stone and Demi Moore in the main roles. It is certain that all these involvements have helped Damon Thomas to add a significant sum to the total size of his net worth.

The most recent of Damon Thomas’ engagements include music arrangement for the 2015 biographical drama, “Straight Outta Compton”, a story of the group NWA which revolutionized the mid-1980s hip-hop culture. For all the achievements mentioned above, Damon Thomas has been nominated for a Grammy Award as well as with a Black Reel Award in 2011.

When it comes to his personal life, Damon Thomas married Kim Kardashian in 2000, when she was just 20 years old. After four years of marriage, she filed for divorce on the alleged basis of emotional and physical abuse accusations, but Damon’s counter-accusations were that Kim is a ‘plastic surgery-loving ‘fame whore’ – unsuprisingly, the couple split in 2004. In 2010, a former maid of the couple sued both of them for not paying her rendered services.

In 2012, Damon Thomas filed for bankruptcy, as his respectable net worth of $45 million had been reduced to just $1 million.

At 11 he started his first business attempt, selling celebrity and sports memorabilia.

Tony Lee Dow was born on 13 April 1945 in Hollywood, California USA. He is a well-known person in the Hollywood movie industry because of his long-lasting involvement as a film producer, director and an actor.

So how rich is Tony Dow? Sources estimate his current net worth to be $4 million. Most of it he has accumulated by working as a professional Hollywood actor for more than 50 years.

Tony Dow Net Worth $4 Million

Tony Dow’s interest in the film industry might have been related to the fact that his mother, Muriel Virginia Dow, was a stunt woman and a film double at the time Tony was a child and teenager. However, Tony undoubtedly had some acting talent which was proven when he managed to win the audition for a role in the sitcom “Leave It to Beaver” in 1957, despite having no experience in acting at that time. This was the role that had perhaps the most influence in building a solid foundation to Tony Dow’s acting career, even though he received only one award – Young Artist Award in nomination of “Former Child Star Lifetime Achievement Award” in 1988, after working in the show for six years. It was also a solid start to his net worth.

In the next few years after “Leave It to Beaver”, Tony appeared in several episodes of other TV shows, such as the sitcom “My Three Sons” (in 1964), drama series “Mr. Novak” (between 1963 and 1965) and teen soap opera “Never Too Young” (in 1965). Tony continued working in television up until the late 90s and his net worth continued to grow, for example in 1975 he starred in the popular medical TV drama “General Hospital”.

While Tony Dow is mostly known as a television actor, he has appeared in a few films during his career, including the television horror film “Death Scream” in 1975, comedy film “The Kentucky Fried Movie” in 1977, television comedy film “High School USA” in 1983, comedy “Back to the Beach” and comedy film “Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star” in 2003.

Acting aside, Tony Dow is also known as a producer, director and visual effects specialist, especially in the science fiction genre, and these involvements have undoubtedly contributed to building up his net worth. Tony contributed to the visual effects of the 1996 season of the phenomenal British science fiction TV series “Doctor Who”, and a few episodes of the space opera TV series “Babylon 5”. He also directed an episode of the American science fiction TV series “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” in 1998.

Interestingly though, some people might also recognize Tony Dow as a sculptor who is well known for his brilliant abstract pieces depicting surreal figures.

In his personal life, Tony Dow has never been married and has no children. He is known to have suffered from depression during some periods of his life, which on a positive note has encouraged him to participate in self-help videos, including the production “Beating the Blues” (1998). However, the negative effect is that Tony hasn’t participated as an actor in any film since 2003.
