Jackie Cooper
Profession Actor Net worth $18,000,000 Source of Wealth Actor Nationality United States
American actor, television director, producer, and executive John “Jackie” Cooper, Jr. had an estimated net worth of $18 million.
American actor Jackie Cooper was in movies at age three; his father abandoned the family when Jackie was two, leaving his mother to depend on the boy’s acting earnings for food. Shortly after he got his first featured part in Fox Movietone Follies in 1929. Cooper was hired for producer Hal Roach’s “Our Gang” two-reeler series, appearing in 15 shorts over the next two years. As the “leading man” in many of these comedies, he was most effective in scenes in which he showed a crush on his new teacher, the beautiful Miss Crabtree. On the strength of “Our Gang,” Paramount Pictures signed Cooper for the title role in the feature film Skippy (1931), which earned the boy an Oscar nomination. A contract with MGM followed, and for the next five years Cooper often co-starred with the fiery Wallace Beery.
Cooper died on May 3, 2011, at the age of 88. According to his agent, Ronnie Leaf, Mr. Cooper died after a brief illness.
