Singer-songwriter Carly Elisabeth Simon is not just a renowned musician; she is also a children’s author. She rose to prominence and took the entertainment industry by storm with several hit records she produced back in the seventies. In fact, thirteen of her songs got included in the Top 40 U.S. These include her four gold-certified singles, Mockingbird, Nobody Does It Better, You’re So Vain, and her song, Jesse from the 1977 James Bond movie, The Spy Who Loved Me. Carly also authored not one, but five children’s books, plus two memoirs. She is truly a remarkable talent.

Carly may be a Hollywood star, but not a lot of people know that her inheritance from her old man is huge. After all, her father, Richard Simon, is the co-founder of the book company Simon & Schuster. Richard, who is actually a classical pianist, might have been Carly’s biggest inspiration when she decided to pursue a career in music. Her net worth as of 2020 is already estimated to be around $80 million, and she must have done a lot of financial planning with her father, who was great in business.
