CELEBRITIES YOU THOUGHT ARE LONG GONE BUT THEY’RE STILL ALIVE AND KICKING

Carleton Carpenter – 92, $8 million

Carleton Carpenter was fortunate to find success in all his ventures. He started in acting, mostly getting supporting roles, and then veered into songwriting before finding himself a successful novelist in the ‘70s and ‘80s! He composed materials for Kaye Ballard, Debbie Reynolds, and even Hermione Gingold, as well as scripts for TV and films.

One of the books he authored called Deadhead even found its way as a musical on Broadway! In 2015, it was reported that Carpenter was into stage acting. In 2016, Carpenter released a memoir called The Absolute Joy of Work.
