Michael Learned, 83 – $3 Million

Michael Learned became a household name in the ’70s following the success of the CBS drama The Waltons. She took up the part of matriarch Olivia Walton on the show in its first outing in 1972. She went on to star in seven seasons and won three Primetime Emmy Awards for her role.

With several decades of on-screen work under her belt, Learned has done pretty well for herself, with her earnings tallying up to an estimated $3 million. In 2021, Learned was cast in the serial killer-themed Netflix series Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story.
