After her parents divorced when she was three years old, Capshaw moved to Los Angeles with her mother, who was pursuing an acting career. She attended L.A.’s Harvard-Westlake School and after her matriculation in 1994, she enrolled in Rhode Island’s Brown University, graduating in 1998 with a degree in English. She then took acting classes at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London, England. However, Capshaw had become involved in acting while she was still in high school, working as an intern on the set of Spielberg’s 1993 classic “Schindler’s List”. She made her film debut with a minor role in the 1997 drama “The Locusts” and went on to land several other minor film parts as well as a few television guest appearances. Her net worth was now established.

Her first major role came in 1999, when she was cast as Aunt Jordan in the television series “Odd Man Out”. Although the series lasted only one season, it served as an ideal showcase for Capshaw’s talent, and opened many doors for the rising actress. In 2001 she appeared in the leading role as Dorothy Wheeler in the slasher film “Valentine”. The following year she played Daisy Valdemar in the film “The Mesmerist”, and Evanna in the psychological thriller “Minority Report”. Her net worth was starting to rise.

In 2002 Capshaw got the opportunity to become a part of the hit ABC television series “The Practice”. She joined the show during its seventh season, playing the oversexed lawyer Jamie Stringer, a role which significantly contributed to her popularity and to her net worth as well.

Now a recognized figure in the acting world, Capshaw went on to land a leading role as Jen in the 2006 comedy film “The Groomsmen”, and a recurring role in the popular television series “Bones” the same year. The following year saw her starring as Cassie Stewart in the film “Blind Trust”, as well as having a recurring role as lesbian Nadia Christ in the hit television series “The L Word”. All added to her wealth.

In 2009 Capshaw was cast as a pediatric surgeon Dr. Arizona Robbins in the acclaimed ABC medical drama series “Grey’s Anatomy”, and has remained a part of the show’s main cast ever since, winning high praises for her performance of Dr. Robins. She has gained a huge number of fans in the gay and lesbian community as well, as this has been the second role as a lesbian in Capshaw’s career. Aside from making her a Hollywood star, her involvement in “Grey’s Anatomy” has considerably improved the actress’ wealth.

When it comes to her personal life, Capshaw has been married to entrepreneur Christopher Gavigan since 2004. The couple has four children together.

Karyn’s next appearance on the TV screen was in 1988, when she played Lynette from “CBS Summer Playhouse” in the episode entitled “Roughhouse”, but her real big break was came in 1990, when the actress had the opportunity to play Will Smith‘s cousin “Hilary Banks” in the NBC sitcom called “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”. After this performance, Karyn Parsons had numerous roles in movies and TV shows. Many viewers also know Karyn Parsons as an actress from “Lush Life” – she not only appeared in it, but was also the co-producer, co-writer and co-creator of the show. However, in the show business industry Karyn has been working for a relatively short span of time, and maybe that is the reason her net worth isn’t rather higher.

Stacey Lauretta Dash was born on 20 January 1967, in The Bronx, New York City USA, of Barbadian, Mexican and Afro-American descent. Stacey Dash is an actress in movies and on TV, perhaps best known for her parts in the TV series “The Cosby Show“ in the 1980s, and more recently “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”.

So just how rich is Stacey Dash? Stacy is now relatively comfortable with an estimated worth of $10 million, which wealth she has earned by starring in numerous movies and TV shows during a career in the entertainment industry spanning more than 30 years.

Stacey Dash Net Worth $10 Million

Stacy Dash made her debut in 1982 when she appeared in “Farrell for the People” alongside Ed O‘Neill. Then followed such famous shows as “The Cosby Show“, “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” and “TV 101“. Her movie career started with the Richard Pryor film “Moving” (1988). The 80‘s were actually a really successful period for the young actress, since her other two movies, “Mo’ Money” and “Renaissance Man”, were also big hits. Her real big break, however, was in 1995 when she appeared in Amy Heckerling’s “Clueless” as Dionne Marie Davenport. The comedy, which was based on Jane Austen‘s novel “Emma”, was very well received and grossed $55 million, thus increasing Dash’s net worth considerably. The film also made her and fellow actresses  Brittany Murphy and Alicia Silverstone true international stars, probably more so as it was soon made into TV series and Dash reprised her role as Dionne. The series ran from 1996 till 1999, and also featured actress and singer Cher. During that period, Stacy also appeared in films like the crime drama “Cold Around the Heart” (1997) and comedy “Personals” (1999). Naturally all of these appearances enhanced Stacy’s net worth.

Stacey Dash is also known for her appearances in music videos. In 2001 she was a part of the music video for the Carl Thomas song “Emotional”, and in 2004 she appeared alongside Kanye West in the music video for his single “All Falls Down.” At the same time Dash continued to have a successful film career with movies “American Primitive”, “I Could Never Be Your Woman”, “Nora’s Hair Salon II”, “Ghost Image” and “Fashion Victim”. She did not, however, forget television and appeared in the series “Single Ladies” in the role of Valerie Stokes but, unfortunately, she did not return for the second season. She was also a part of the reality TV show “Celebrity Circus”, in  which celebrities had to perform circus tricks. Dash was one of the finalists, finishing second after Antonio Sabato, Jr. In addition, she also had guest roles in “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” and “The Game”. All these roles in movies and TV shows helped to increase her overall net worth.

Besides her acting career, Stacey Dash also has her own lingerie line “Letters of Marque” and posed for Playboy in 2006.

In her personal life, Stacy Dash was first married to Brian Lovell(1999-2000), and then James Maby(2005-06). She married Emmanuel Xuereb in 2007, but divorced him in 2010 and asked for restraining order against him, claiming physical abuse. Stacy also has a son fathered by R&B singer Christopher Williams, and a daughter (born 2003). She is very open about her political views and often uses Twitter to criticise certain public figures. Interestingly, she supported Barack Obama in 2008, but in the presidential elections of 2012 she expressed her support for Republican candidate Mitt Romney.
