The Riches of Markie Post
As of mid-2020, Markie Post’s net worth is estimated to be over $12 million, earned through a successful career in the acting profession, in the entertainment industry since the late-1970s.
Apart from television work, she’s also appeared in a few film projects during her career.
Early Life, Education, and Career Beginnings
Markie grew up in Palo Alto where her mother worked as a poet, while her father is scientist Richard F. Post, known for his work in the nuclear and magnetic fields. She grew up as the middle child of three siblings – the family later settled at Walnut Creek, California, where she attended Las Lomas High School. The school has been in existence since the 1950s, and is one of five schools in the area. She was a popular student, and a member of the cheerleading squad.
After matriculating from high school, she enrolled at the private Lewis & Clark College, in Portland, Oregon; she also spent a semester at Pomona College before returning to Lewis & Clark to complete her bachelor’s degree. After graduating in the 1970s, she realized she wanted to enter the entertainment industry, and began her foray as a part of the production crew of the game show “Split Second”, then continued with other production crews for shows such as “Pyramid”, “Double Dare”, “Card Sharks”, and “Password”.
Transition to Acting
Following her work in various game shows, Post found her entry as an actress in an episode of the show “CHIPs”. The crime show follows the lives of two California Highway Patrol (CHP) motorcycle officers as they handle various crimes in the area. Soon more work came her way, including appearances in “The Lazarus Syndrome”, “Hart to Hart”, and “Barnaby Jones”. She also made a guest appearance in the pilot episode of “Simon & Simon”, a show which would run for almost the entire 1980s.
Her early career was defined by these guest appearances, until in 1981 when she made her film debut in “Gangster Wars”, playing the character Chris Brennan.
The film starred Joe Penny and Michael Nouri, telling the story of several notable gangsters of the past, including Lucky Luciano and Bugsy Siegel. A year after this debut, she was cast in her first regular television role in “The Fall Guy”, of which she was a part for the next three years. The show aired on ABC and tells the story of several stunt performers in Hollywood, who work as bounty hunters on the side.
Rise to Fame
After “The Fall Guy”, Markie found regular work in the game show “The $10,000 Pyramid”, and was also cast as a regular in “Night Court”, playing the character Christine Sullivan. The sitcom follows the story of an unorthodox judge named Harry Stone, as he presides at the Manhattan municipal court during the night shift.
The show was a reflection of the popularity of courthouse-focused themes during the 1970s, though “Night Court” was significantly more popular than its competitors such as “Sirtoa’s Court”.
She stayed with the show until its end in 1992, appearing in over 150 episodes in eight years. She didn’t take a break afterwards, as she gained another regular role in the sitcom “Hearts Afire” which partnered her with John Ritter. The show’s title is based on the song “That’s the Way of the World” by the band, Earth, Wind & Fire, and follows the story of a political reporter and a senator’s aide who begin to develop feelings for each other, despite being initially in conflict due to their respective professions.
The show took an unusual turn in its second season, changing the setting completely which ultimately proved to be its undoing, as it was canceled after its third season.
Recent Projects
In 1998, Post was cast in one of her few mainstream film projects in “There’s Something About Mary”, as the mother of Cameron Diaz’s character. The film also stars Ben Stiller and Matt Dillon, telling the story of men who are in love with the titular Mary, and are trying to win her affection. The film was one of the highest-grossing of the year, and gained numerous positive reviews; it’s considered one of the best movies of the 20th century.
After that she returned to television, working on “Odd Man Out” as a series regular, but the show was short-lived, lasting only a year, but she also had recurring roles in “Scrubs” and “The District”. In 2010, she shifted her attention to voice acting, and voiced the character June Darby, for 15 episodes of the show “Transformers Prime”. One of her most recent projects is the television series “Chicago PD”, in which she portrayed the recurring character, Bunny Fletcher. The show follows the story of officers who are members of the Chicago Police Department.
Personal Life
Markie met Stephen Knox while both were students at Lewis & Clark College. The started a relationship and eventually married in 1971, but it was short-lived, lasting only for a year. Her next marriage would be a decade later to writer Michael A. Ross, and the two have stayed together since, and have two children. During the early part of her career, she was known to be very elusive when it came to romances, as she was very conscious of her weight and didn’t want to go on dates that involved a lot of food. She also took on the bad girl stereotype in her projects, as they felt more of a natural fit to her, as she wasn’t like most of the prettier girls around her.

The Untold Truth Of Steve Buscemi’s Son – Lucian Buscemi
Lucian Buscemi is an American musician and actor, born on 30 June 1990 in New York City, USA. He’s known for being the son of actor, producer and director Steve Buscemi.
Contents
Early Life
Lucian is the only child resulting from the marriage between Steve Buscemi and Jo Andres.
Details about Lucian’s educational background are unknown. However, it has been disclosed he spent his childhood in Park Slope, Brooklyn.
Despite his parents’ movie-oriented professions, Lucian developed a deep interest in rock and alternative music instead. Influenced by his father, Lucian came to love and grew up listening to the ‘70s legendary punk bands The Ramones and The Clash. He also counts Korn, Blink-182 and Green Day as his influences.
Inspired by various music genres, Lucian Buscemi started learning to play various instruments at an early age. Nowadays he’s considered a multi-instrumentalist, as he plays the piano, guitar and bass.
Career
Hollywood – Actor & Musician
Lucian Buscemi’s career as an actor started very early in life, when he was only six years old, as he was cast in a minor role in the movie “Trees Lounge”. Premiered in 1996 and written and directed by Lucian’s father Steve Buscemi, this film centers around a mechanic named Tommy, who lets life pass by while he makes excuses not to leave his alcoholic ways.
In 2007 Lucian was involved i the soundtrack of “Interview”, with his band Fiasco’s song “0157: H7 (Spy Song)”.
The movie starring and directed by his father Steve, is a remake of “The Departed” and although its script received mixed critiques, it was also well reviewed by experts due to its execution.
In 2011 Lucian collaborated in the original soundtrack (OST) of the movie “4:44 Last Day on Earth”. The film – which received mixed reviews – is a SCI-FI drama directed by Abel Ferreira, and is centered in the story of two lovers spending the end of the world together in New York.
Also in 2011, Lucian worked in the sound department of the movie “Sal”, which is based on the real story of the actor/musician Sal Mineo.
Music Career – Fiasco
Along with Jonathan Edelstein and Julian Bennett Holmes, Lucian Buscemi – who was 16 years old at the time – formed the band Fiasco. Fiasco’s sound didn’t fit in only one genre, as the members of the band were inspired by many bands such as Bad Brains, Don Caballero and Lightning Bolt.
Often defined as a mix of math rock and hardcore punk, Lucian told Gothamist that the band members were musically inspired by their personal experiences and preferences: ‘We basically all got into hardcore punk via word of mouth and the internet, and then we wanted to play that style of music.’ As such, he considers the creation of Fiasco wasn’t determined by their environment or social background: ‘Kids getting into that style of music could happen anywhere.’
Despite starting as a cover band, this didn’t deter the members from experimenting with their sound, slowly improving and developing a more unique style: ‘It got noisier and more complex I guess. We started to play in odd time signatures, and the riffs we started writing became harder to play.’ Regardless of the changes the band went through, Fiasco still preserved their punk influences throughout its career.
After signing with the independent company Impose Records, in 2007 Fiasco released their first album – “God Loves Fiasco” – which contained 23 tracks and gained the band recognition in the local music scene of Brooklyn. After that they released various albums such as “Native Canadians” in 2008, “Fabolous Bozo FP” in 2009, and the single “Sinus Rhythm Breakdown” in 2012. These works were highly acclaimed by the public, leading the band to be showcased by not only rock music-especialized magazines, but by several mainstream media platforms.
Fiasco also toured the US several times but entered an indefinite hiatus in 2012, although apparently while in production of the single “Sinus Rhythm Breakdown”.
Its members concentrated on their personal projects – Buscemi has done more acting, in movies such as in “Interview”, “Tree Lounges” and “The Sopranos”, and has also been involved in the soundtracks of several Hollywood productions.
It’s unknown exactly what Lucian Buscemi is doing nowadays.

Who is Ziv Zaifman on ‘The Greatest Showman’? – Biography
Contents
Who is Ziv Zaifman?
Ziv Zaifman was born on 7 July 2004, in Clearwater, Florida, USA, and is an actor as well as a singer, best known for his work on the film “The Greatest Showman”. While he didn’t have a role in the film, he provided the singing voice for actor Ellis Rubin, who was portraying a young PT Barnum.
The Riches of Ziv Zaifman
As of early-2020, Ziv Zaifman has a net worth estimated to be over $200,000 earned through a bit of success in the entertainment industry. He’s been involved in a few acting projects, though “The Greatest Showman” remains as his biggest success commercially. As he is still young, time will tell if he will continues in the acting field or pursue another.
Early Life and Career Beginnings
Ziv grew up in Florida, and at a young age demonstrated talent in singing. He loved performing, and aspired to find a career as a film actor, using his talents in singing to help him land roles in musicals or the like.
One of his first acting roles was in an episode of the show “The Blacklist” in 2017; starring James Spader, it follows the story of a criminal who was formerly an officer in the US Navy, and after eluding the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for many years, he gives himself up to become an informant, convincing them that he’s compiled a blacklist of all the most dangerous criminals in the world, and is willing to give up the information in exchange for immunity.
The show has been acclaimed throughout its run, which made it a great first step for Zaifman, though he only had a small role in one episode.
PT Barnum – A History
Zaifman’s next project would be his most career-defining so far, as the singing voice of Ellis Rubin in “The Greatest Showman”. The show is a biographical film, depicting the life of showman Phineas Taylor Barnum or PT Barnum, who founded the Barnum and Bailey Circus, which for its entire run marketed itself as “The Greatest Show on Earth”, hence the name of the film.
Barnum was a small business owner who discovered a desire to pursue a career in entertainment. He first purchased Scudder’s American Museum which he used as a platform to market various hoaxes such as the Fiji Mermaid, actually a monkey sewn into a fish, making it look like the skeleton of a mermaid. These hoaxes were what he would become known for though – in 1850, he partnered with opera singer Jenny Lind for an American tour spanning 150 nights, for which he paid her an unprecedented $1000 a night for her work. While he suffered numerous setbacks during this period, his museum flourished, expanding and gaining the first aquarium in the US.
The Later Career of PT Barnum
While Barnum’s most enduring and celebrated achievement was his circus, his later career was marked with service in the government, as he became a member of the Connecticut Legislature. He was highly inclined to a change in the US Constitution, opposed to practices of slavery, expressing his Christian beliefs that a soul should not be subject to involuntary servitude. He also fought for causes such as street lighting, prostitution laws, liquor limitations, and better water supply to the state, plus establishing the Bridgeport Hospital in 1878. Most of these achievements were overshadowed by his traveling circus and museum filled with freaks, as the public would call it.
The Success of The Greatest Showman
The film gained a lot of traction since its announcement, gaining high profile acting talents such as Hugh Jackman, Zendaya, and Zac Efron. The film takes inspiration from Barnum’s museum and his career in entertainment, most notably his work with Lind as well as his circus. The film’s production took most of 2017, with its release scheduled for later in the year. The film had a mixed reception from critics, though it did not stop generally positive acclaim for its music, production, and acting performances. Hugh Jackman gained numerous nominations for his work, and the music of the film gained numerous nominations, with the song “This Is Me” winning a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song.
While its soundtrack gained a lot of attention, it was also noted that several actors didn’t sing their respective songs. Zendaya, Hugh and Zac performed their songs, while Loren Allred provided the voice for actress Rebecca Ferguson, who portrayed the Swedish Nightingale Jenny Lind. Ziv also sang, and can be heard on the track “A Million Dreams”. The film was successful commercially, becoming the third highest-grossing musical in the US, earning a total of $435 million worldwide, as opposed to its $84 million budget.
Recent Work and Personal Life
Since the success of “The Greatest Showman”, Zaifman has had one other film project, a follow-up from his work in the previous film, cast in the 2018 independent film “To Dust”, which starred Matthew Broderick and Geza Rohrig.
The film premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival, and tells the story of a Jewish man who tries to move forward after losing his wife to cancer. He then finds an unusual partnership with a rabbi and a biology professor.
Following his work there, things have been quiet for Ziv in the last few years. The speculation is that he is continuing his education, and may eventually take more acting opportunities as thery comes. However, there is also a possibility that he may not follow through with his initial acting work, as is the case for several child actors.
Ziv is young and single, not likely focused on finding any long term relationship as he is still focused on education. He’s also just begun in his career in the entertainment industry, which may leave him little in terms of time for a girlfriend. Not a lot of information has been revealed about him, apart from his love for singing and acting.
