Ally Sheedy Net Worth: Ally Sheedy is an American actress and writer who has a net worth of $4 million. Sheedy accumulated her net worth through her performances on stage and in film and television projects, as well as being the author of the books “She Was Nice to Mice” (1975) and “Yesterday I Saw the Sun: Poems” (1991). Ally first rose to prominence as a mischievous teen who, along with computer nerd Matthew Broderick, almost triggers World War III in “WarGames” (1983). Two years later, she made two other notable performances, as a misfit spending one day in detention in the John Hughes classic “The Breakfast Club” and as a headstrong Gen-Xer in the post-college drama “St. Elmo’s Fire.” The three blockbuster movies earned Sheedy, among other things, a membership in the so-called “Brat Pack,” an exclusive clique of young, rich, and famous actors like Emilio Estevez, Molly Ringwald, Judd Nelson, and Rob Lowe, in the 1980s.However, just as her career peaked in the ’80s, it practically fell into complete obscurity the following decade. After spending a period in the dearth of second-rate movies and TV shows, Sheedy started to shine brightly in the Hollywood sky once again with her award-winning portrayal of heroin-addict and photographer Lucy Berliner in the independent movie “High Art” (1998). Once she was propelled back into the limelight, Sheedy went on to star in numerous TV projects throughout the 2000s, including a memorable four-episode stint on the USA network series “Psych” (2009–2010; 2013) where she played a serial killer known as Mr. Yang.Early Life: Ally Sheedy was born Alexandra Elizabeth Sheedy on June 13, 1962, in New York City.

During the Golden Globes in January 2018, Ally called out James Franco in a #MeToo tweet and stated “James Franco just won. Please never ask me why I left the film/tv business.” She later removed the tweets, and on an episode of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” Franco said, “I have no idea what I did to Ally Sheedy. I directed her in a play Off Broadway. I had nothing but a great time with her, total respect for her. I have no idea why she was so upset.”Awards and Nominations: In 2005, the MTV Movie Awards honored the cast of “The Breakfast Club” with a Silver Bucket of Excellence Award. “High Art” earned Sheedy a Film Independent Spirit Award, Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award, and National Society of Film Critics Award as well as nominations from the Boston Society of Film Critics Awards, Chicago Film Critics Association Awards, and Chlotrudis Awards.
