This has previously left others perplexed on social media, forcing them to “Google” her. One person wrote: “Why do I seldom see Jami Gertz in movies? Did she earn it via performing or did she have other sources of income?
Well, Twister, Crossroads, and Sixteen Candles are some of her well-known movie appearances. She has also been on television in shows including This is Us,
Modern Family, The Neighbours, and Seinfeld. She most recently starred in the movie I Want You Back, which came out in 2022.
Given that Gertz and her husband own a portion of the NBA franchise, the Atlanta Hawks, it’s safe to assume that her remarkable riches came from sources other than acting.
She also acknowledges that her life outside of the spotlight, including running a basketball team with her spouse, is “not your everyday Hollywood actress tale.”
In 1989, the 59-year-old married Tony Ressler, a rich investor. The Hollywood Reporter previously quoted Gertz as saying, “Everyone thinks she married a rich guy.”
