Wiki Biography
Maureen FitzSimons was born on 17th August 1920, in Dublin, Ireland. As Maureen O’Hara, she was an Irish-American actress and singer, famous for her films made in the Golden Age of Hollywood. People remember her as John Wayne’s partner in “The Quiet Man” and for her role in “Miracle on 34th Street”. The actress died on 24th October 2015, at the age of 95.
So just how rich was Maureen O’Hara? The media has estimated Maureen’s net worth at $10 million. Most of the money was made in the film industry, the actress being cast in more than 60 films, both on television and the big screen. She added further money to her income from her business, a clothing store in Tarzana, Los Angeles, launched in 1940.
Maureen O’Hara Net Worth $10 Million
Maureen started performing with the Rathmines Theatre Company when she was just 10, and managed to enter Abbey Theater at the age of 14. Performing from such a young age, she succeeded in developing her abilities in classical theater and singing. Soon after, she was ‘discovered’ by Charles Laughton, who changed her name to Maureen O’Hara and gave her a role in the film “Jamaica Inn”.
In the same year of 1939, the actress moved to the US to make another film, “The Hunchback of Notre Dame”. Her success helped her change her contract and she signed with RKO Pictures. After her first two films, 20th Century Fox managed to cast her in the 1941 film “How Green Was My Valley”, which ended with Maureen O’Hara’s contract shared between RKO and Fox. She continued to play various roles for more than 60 years, starring in films like “Rio Grande”, “The Quiet Man”, “The Parent Trap”, “A Cry of Angels”, “How Do I Love Thee?”, and “Big Jake”. She made appearances in the television series “The DuPont Show of the Month”, “The Garry Moore Show”, and “Off to See the Wizard”. Her red hair and attractive features saw her receive the name “Queen of Technicolor”.
In 1991, Maureen O’Hara played Rose Muldoon in the film “Only the Lonely” and she had roles in three other television movies, “The Christmas Box”, “Cab to Canada”, and “The Last Dance”, the last being made in 2000. Her net worth was still rising.
Maureen O’Hara was also a good singer. Between 1940 and 1960, she used her voice to record various songs featured on the soundtracks of films, such as “A Woman’s Secret”, “Do You Love Me”, “The Deadly Companions”, and “Spencer’s Mountain”. She also released two recordings, “Maureen O’Hara Sings her Favorite Irish Songs” and “Love Letters from Maureen O’Hara”, all of which contributed something to her net worth.
Besides her film career, she also appeared on stage, having parts in the plays “Christine”, performed on Broadway, and “My Indian Family”, at 46th Street Theatre.
O’Hara was rewarded with a Golden Boot award, the 2004 Irish Film and Television Academy Lifetime Achievement Award, and the 2014 Honorary Academy Award. The actress also has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Maureen O’Hara made millions from her films in over 60 years in the movie industry. Besides her acting career, she had her own travel magazine between 1976 and 1980, and she was the CEO of an airline company, after her third husband’s death. Her property in Ireland was sold in 2014 for $2.3 million; Lugdine Park included a coastal home, two islands, and a private beach, together with 35 acres of land outside the town of Glengarriff.
Maureen O’Hara was married three times, to George Hanley Brown, between 1938 and 1941, to William Price, from 1941 to 1953, and to Charles F. Blair, from 1968 until 1978, when he died in a plane crash. She had a daughter from her second marriage.

| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | [on being asked what her most marked characteristic was] The hell and fire in me. They came as a set. |
| 2 | [on some of the leading men she worked with] I enjoyed James Stewart, I enjoyed Brian Keith and I enjoyed Henry Fonda. Jeff Chandler was a nice man but a bad actor. |
| 3 | [on Sam Peckinpah, who directed her in The Deadly Companions (1961)] I didn't enjoy Sam at all. I have to be honest. I didn't think he was a very good director. I think he was lucky that whatever happened in his career happened. I think it was luck, not talent. I'm sorry. You have to forgive me. He was not a good director and if his films turned out successful, that was luck... and people protecting him, like the cameramen and the producers. Different people protecting him made him look good. |
| 4 | How could you have had such a wonderful life as me if there wasn't a God directing? |
| 5 | [When being handed her honorary Oscar] I only hope it's silver or gold and not like a spoon out of the kitchen. |
| 6 | [2010, her advice to young people wanting a career in drama] If you really want it, go after it--and learn how to speak properly, for God's sake! |
| 7 | I made John Wayne sexy. I take credit for that. |
| 8 | [reacting to the heavy make-up she had to wear for her first screen test] I looked like Mata Hari! |
| 9 | I spent a great deal of time with Ernesto 'Che' Guevara while I was in Havana. I feel he was less a mercenary than he was a freedom fighter. |
| 10 | [on John Garfield]: He was my shortest leading man, an outspoken Communist and a real sweetheart. |
| 11 | Comedy is quite difficult, you have to be able to have fun and portray that sense of fun to the audience watching you. |
| 12 | Every star has that certain something that stands out and compels us to notice them. As for me I have always believed my most compelling quality to be my inner strength, something I am easily able to share with an audience. I'm very comfortable in my own skin. I never thought my looks would have anything to do with becoming a star. Yet it seems that in some ways they did. |
| 13 | [on John Ford's style of directing] Today most directors--not all, but most directors--are in another room watching the actors on a television screen. There are no connections with the actors, which is a shame, because John Ford connected with his cast. |
| 14 | I'm very lucky I really had some wonderful movies. |
| 15 | [on John Ford] I think he was a bitterly disappointed man. More than anything he wanted to be in Ireland or be a military hero. So every so often his anger would spill out and whoever was closest got the brunt of his anger. |
| 16 | I was talking to a director I knew and [John Ford] just turned around and punched me on the jaw. There was no reason or explanation, and I walked straight out of the house and vowed I'd never speak to him again. Of course, I did, but it took a while. He never apologized and I never found out why he hit me. |
| 17 | Charles Laughton and his wife, Elsa Lanchester, were never blessed with children. Years after he died, Elsa wrote her autobiography and claimed they never had children because Laughton was homosexual. That's rubbish. Whether or nor Laughton was gay would never have stopped him from having children. He wanted them too badly. Laughton told me the reason they never had children was because Elsa couldn't conceive, the result of a botched abortion she'd had during her earlier days in burlesque. Laughton told me many times that not being a father was his greatest disappointment in life. |
| 18 | To the people throughout the world, John Wayne is not just an actor, and a very fine actor--John Wayne is the United States of America. |
| 19 | Speaking as an actress, I wish all actors would be more like Duke [John Wayne]--and speaking as a person, it would be nice if all people could be honest and as genuine as he is. This is a real man. |

RKO Radio Pictures later purchased her contract from him and later sold part of it to 20th Century-Fox. |
| 7 | Had starred with Anthony Quinn in six films: The Black Swan (1942), Buffalo Bill (1944), Sinbad, the Sailor (1947), Against All Flags (1952), The Magnificent Matador (1955) and Only the Lonely (1991). |

| 12 | Received an honorary doctorate from University College in Galway, Ireland (1988). |

| 24 | She became an American citizen on January 25, 1946 but has retained her Irish citizenship. It was the first time in history that the United States government recognized an Irish citizen as Irish. This led to a change in process for all Irish immigrants. |
| 25 | She was made a Fellow of the British Film Institute in recognition of her outstanding contribution to film culture. |
| 26 | She made headlines in 1997 by claiming that Brian Keith's suicide, while suffering from lung cancer and emphysema and mourning the suicide of his daughter, was an accident. |
