Mario Van Peebles Net Worth $8 Million
Mario Van Peebles was born to Maria Marx, a German photographer and actress, and Melvin Van Peebles, an award-winning writer, director, and actor. His parents divorced when he was still young, so Mario and his sister went to San Francisco to live with their mom. Mario matriculated from Saint Thomas More School in Connecticut in 1974, and in the next four years attended Columbia University, from where he graduated in 1978 with a bachelors degree in economics.
Mario’s father profoundly influenced his decision to pursue an acting career, and even landed him his debut in his film “Sweet Sweetback’s Baadasssss Song” in 1971. Although it was a small part, it was enough for Mario to continue with acting after graduating from the college. In 1981, Melvin Van Peebles wrote and directed the Broadway play “Waltz of the Stork,” in which both he and Mario played. Meantime, Mario studied acting with Stella Adler while working as a photographer and model to pay for his bills. Posing for numerous magazines also generated a solid amount of money for him.
Van Peebles cameo in Francis Ford Coppola’s “The Cotton Club” in 1984 was the real beginning. In the same year, he played a villain in Mark Buntzman’s “Exterminator 2”, but he was also a regular on the TV series “One Life to Live” (1982-1983). 1986 was a success for Mario, as he appeared in Clint Eastwood’s drama “Heartbreak Ridge”, and after that in “Jaws: The Revenge” (1987), “New Jack City” (1991) starring Wesley Snipes, “Posse” (1993) with Stephen Baldwin and Billy Zane, “Panther” (1995), and “Love Kills” (1998) with Daniel Baldwin and Lesley Ann Warren.
Mario played Malcolm X in the 2001 biopic “Ali”, starring Will Smith. In 2003, he wrote, directed, produced, and starred in the biography “Baadasssss,” based on his father Melvin and his struggles within the film industry in the early 70s. He has now directed more than ten films, including “New Jack City” (1991), Posse (1991), “Panther” (1995), “Gang in Blue” (1996), “Love Kills” (1998), “How to Get the Man’s Foot Outta Your Ass” (2003), and “Hard Luck” (2006). Some of these movies had success at the box office, which added to his net worth.
Mario Van Peebleshas won numerous awards, including Image Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture for “Heartbreak Ridge” in 1984, Silver Leopard at Locarno International Film Festival for “Panther” in 1995, and Black Reel Award for Best Director for “How to Get the Man’s Foot Outta Your Ass” in 2005.
In his personal life, Mario is married to Chitra Sukhu Van Peebles, an Indo-Guyanese children’s yoga expert and author, andthe pair has five children. He was previously married to Lisa Vitello, with whom he has two children.

# | Quote |
---|
1 | When young people see movies like 'Gandhi 'or 'JFK,' there is an element of romanticization of these powerful people, and young people often feel a huge distance between their own lives and the lives of these social-change heroes. But the Panthers were flawed-up people from the streets, so it's easier to identify with them. |
2 | No matter what color you are, if you mentor some little boy or girl, you make a huge difference in their lives because they then model behavior that leads to success versus modeling behavior that doesn't. |
3 | My father, Melvin van Peebles, and my mother were both very active politically when I was a kid. The first time I was allowed to stay up late was to attend a demonstration. |
4 | My dad always said there's four phases in an actor/director's life. There's 'Mario Who?' There's 'Get me Mario!' 'Get me a young Mario,' and 'Mario Who?' |
5 | If you sort of treat the environment in sort of this mechanical, industrial way that there's a disconnect between man and the environment, it's very easy to treat people that way. |
6 | If I or any other black can deliver at the box office, I'll get a lot of work. Too many young actors, regardless of their color, try to play an attitude on camera and fail to remember their job is to fit into an entertainment. |
7 | When you make a film that is based in reality, reality will come up all around it. |
8 | When I came out to Hollywood, I discovered the perfect place for my creative madness - Cannon Pictures. |
9 | We think birth is a miracle and death is a tragedy, but really they're flip sides of the same coin - anything born is gonna die. |
10 | There is definitely places in America where, if you're born into that environment, your chances of getting out are really, really limited. |
11 | My father told me you have two loves in your life: What you do and the people you're with. |
12 | I'm not in business to make money. |
13 | I went from being 'Mario who?' to 'Mario baby! |
14 | I had unusual parents. We'd been to Europe. We'd been in the theater. We were sort of like the Addams Family. |
