Early Life and Bio

Allen Kelsey Grammer was born in Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, on February 21, 1955, to Sally and Frank Allen Grammer, Jr. His mother was a singer and actress. Also, his father was a musician and restaurateur. However, Grammer was raised by his mother and maternal grandparents in New Jersey and Florida.

He attended the private preparatory school, Pine Crest School, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Also, it was there that he first began dabbling in music and theatre. He eventually earned a scholarship to study at the Juilliard School, but ultimately was expelled for failure to attend classes.

Therefore, the reason why he suffered from poor academic performance at college. That was because his only sister, Karen, was kidnapped and murdered in 1975. Other personal tragedies in his family include the murder of his father in 1968 and the death of his two half-brothers in a scuba diving accident in 1980.

Career

Kelsey Grammer advanced his theatrical career when he played Michael Plummer in the Broadway production of ‘Othello.’ However, in ‘La Cage Aux Folles,’ he made his Broadway musical debut. As Stephen Smith in the television series “Kennedy,” Grammer, on the other hand, debuted in the early 1980s.

Moreover, he rose to prominence after starring in the NBC comedy ‘Cheers,’ which was a watershed moment in his career. Also, the character became a great hit off ‘Frasier,’ which is regarded as one of the most successful spin-offs in television history. So, in the following years of his career, Grammar earned the Golden Globe Award for his portrayal of the Mayor of Chicago in the film “Boss.”

Also, Grammar went on to portray a villain in ‘Transformers: Age of Extinction’ and a comedian in ‘Partners’. Grammar also appeared in films such as ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation and ‘Medium.’ In addition to appearing on The Simpsons, Toy Story 2, Anastasia, Mickey Mouse: Once Upon a Christmas, and Gary the Rat, Grammar became well-known for his voiceover work thanks to his Atlantic accent.

However, many ads, including those for Hyundai and Honey Nut Cheerios, have utilised Grammer’s voice. Since then, Grammer has been in numerous films and has carved up a successful career as a voice actor. Also, he created the popular NBC show “Medium.” He belongs to the Republican Party and has stated that he would like to run for Congress in the future.

Salary

For the final two seasons, Kelsey earned $1.6 million per episode of Frasier. That’s roughly $38 million per season or $76 million for the last two seasons alone. However, at the time the deal made him the highest-paid actor in television history. Also, today that’s the fifth-highest salary earned by a TV actor on a per-episode basis. After adjusting for inflation, he earned the equivalent of $2.2 million per episode.

Real Estate

In 2002 Kelsey paid $5.35 million for a ski-in-ski-out mansion in Avon, Colorado. He sold this property in 2013 for $6.6 million. However, in 2007 Kelsey paid $13.7 million for a large mansion in Holmby Hills, California. Also, he listed this property for sale a year later for $19.9 million.

Real estate records seem to indicate that he still owns this property today. So, he lowered the offering price to $18 million in 2012, further reducing it to $14.99 million in April 2013 before taking it off the market. This was inadvertently a good move because today the home is easily worth at least $25 million.
