American television and film producer, as well as an actor commonly known as Tom Selleck, was born on 29 January 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and is perhaps best known for his roles of Thomas Magnum, a private investigator in the popular TV series called “Magnum, P.I.”, and as Jesse Stone in the adaptation of Robert B. Parker’s crime novels, such as “Night Passage”, “Trouble in Paradise”, “Stone Cold” and many others.
So just how rich is Tom Selleck, as of mid-2017? According to celebrity dot money, Selleck’s net worth is estimated to be over 50 million dollars, accumulated mostly from his acting career which began in the late 1960s; even now his salary from the TV series “Blue Blood” amounts to 150,000 dollars per episode.
Thomas William Selleck relocated to California with his family when he was a child, where he attended Grant High School, and then a basketball scholarship enabled him to continue his studies at the University of Southern California. While still in university, in 1965 Selleck landed his first role on television, which was in a popular show called “The Dating Game”. He returned to the show in 1967, but at the same time he was making appearances in various commercials as well. Selleck’s professional acting career really began with small roles in such films as “The Seven Minutes” in 1971, directed by Russ Meyer, and “Coma” starring Michael Douglas, Rip Tom and Elizabeth Ashley. For a while, Selleck did not have any acting offers at all, until he was cast to play Thomas Magnum in “Magnum, P.I.”, first aired on television screens in 1980, and which managed to build a devoted audience over the years. Considered to be one of the highest-rated shows on television at the time, it also featured guest appearances from Frank Sinatra, Kim Richards, Ted Danson, and Gerald McRaney to name a few. The show’s consistent audience average, and so a guaranteed spot on the list of top 20 television programs, largely contributed to its eight season run, which ended in 1988.
Following the success of “Magnum, P.I.”, Tom Selleck landed a role in a comedy film called “Three Men and a Baby”, in which he co-starred with Steve Guttenberg and Ted Danson. The movie went on to gross more than 167 million dollars at the box office, making it the highest-grossing film of the year. He then made appearances in such films as “Three Men and a Little Lady”, “An Innocent Man”, “The Love Letter” starring Blythe Danner and Ellen DeGeneres, as well as “In & Out” directed by Frank Oz.
Tom has now been involved in over 50 films and 40 TV productions. Currently, Tom Selleck stars in the police procedural drama series entitled “Blue Blood”, in which he plays Francis Reagan, a police commissioner in the NYPD, considerably enhancing his net worth.
Selleck’s contribution to the film industry has been rewarded with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, as well as several Emmy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and People’s Choice Awards.
In his personal life, from 1971 to 1982 Selleck was married to model Jacqueline Ray, adopting her son, Kevin Shepard. Since 1987, Selleck has been married to Jillie Mack - they have a daughter, and live on a 60 acre (24 ha) avocado farm in Thousand Oaks-Westlake, California.
