What was Dale Robertson's Net Worth?

Dale Robertson was an American actor who had a net worth of $5 million at the time of his death. Born Dayle Lymoine Robertson (July 14, 1923 – February 27, 2013) in Harrah, Oklahoma County, Oklahoma, he is best remembered for his starring roles on television and his turns in Western movies.

Before joining the Oklahoma Military College at the age of 17, Robertson  earned his living as a professional prize fighter. Throughout the World War II, he fought bravely for the US on the fronts in North Africa and Europe, and was honored with the Bronze and Silver Stars, as well as the Purple Heart. Unbelievable as it may seem, Robertson entered the world of Hollywood after he was recruited by movie scouts who saw a picture he had taken for his mother in a photo shop window. He was still serving in the South Pacific when he first started receiving letters from film agents.

Once the war was over, Robertson decided to stay in California and take his chance in the movie industry. Under the sway of Will Rogers Jr., he didn't take any acting lessons in order to keep his persona untainted. The beginning of his career marks his appearance on the popular TV #92 in various television weeklies. As for his film credits, they include his turns in 1949's features "Fighting Man of the Plans" and "Flamingo Road." After he switched to TV in the 1950s, he starred in such series as "Tales of Wells Fargo," "Iron Horse" and "Death Valley Days."

Often presented as a deceptively thoughtful but modest western hero, he also appeared on "Dallas" and "Dynasty." In the early 1990s Dale played the role of Zeke in "Harts of the West."

After he retired from acting, Robertson lived on his ranch in Yukon, Oklahoma. He also had a home in San Diego.
