What Is Jami Gertz’s Net Worth? She’s Extremely Wealthy

American actor Jami Gertz has been working in the film and television industry for decades. She’s taken roles in dozens of titles throughout her on-screen career — you know her from projects like Twister, Still Standing, Sixteen Candles, and more.

Even though she’s had a solid career, her net worth is leaps and bounds beyond that of a working actor. So, what is Jami Gertz’s net worth, and how did she make all that money?

Jami is one of the richest women in America, thanks to the impressive size of her net worth. Her net worth was most recently reported to sit at $3 billion. Her net worth has grown exponentially over the years, as it was reported to be $500 million back in 2018.

She and her husband, billionaire businessman and philanthropist Antony Ressler, opened a new avenue of income for themselves after purchasing a part of an NBA team, the Atlanta Hawks.

Additionally, the couple holds a minority stake in Wisconsin’s NBL team, the Milwaukee Brewers. Between her already-established career as a performer and her venture into sports team ownership, Jami has found a few ways to keep her net worth value up.

Jami is a very successful actor in her own right, but the majority of her wealth can be traced back to her billionaire husband, Tony Ressler.

Tony is well-known for his success as an investor, although it should be noted that most of his successes occurred after he and Jami were married (lest anyone think she married him solely for his money).

Tony Ressler is a co-founder of the private equity firm Apollo Global Management, which he started in 1990. In 1997, Tony went on to found Ares Management. It’s been reported that his net worth is $7 billion. He met his wife when she was 21 with the help of publisher Susan Gelle.

The couple have been charitable with their unfathomable amounts of money and have taken the initiative to give back to those around them. They founded the Ressler/Gertz Foundation, which donates to art museums, education foundations, Jewish organizations and temples, and health and human services organizations.

The couple has three sons together: Oliver Jordan Ressler, born in 1992; Nicholas Simon Ressler, born in 1995; and Theo Ressler, born in 1998.

Oliver is an artist and filmmaker, Nick seems to be involved in the operations of the Atlanta Hawks, and Theo followed in his father’s footsteps and began a career in investment banking, per his Linkedin.

Together with her husband, Jami is a part owner of the Atlanta Hawks NBA team.

They also own a minority stake in the MLB’s Milwaukee Brewers.
