Noted American comedian Bill Nye, was born William Sanford Nye on 27 November 1955, in Washington, D.C., USA, and is also an actor, engineer, scientist, as well as a television host. To the public, Bill is perhaps still best known for his educational television program called “Bill Nye the Science Guy”, which aired on television screens from 1993 until 1998.
A well-known scientist and a television host, just how rich is Bill Nye as of early 2018? According to celebrity dot money, Bill’s net worth is estimated to be over 6.5 million dollars, most of which he has accumulated from his appearances on television screens, during a career in the entertainment industry which began in the late 1970s.
Bill's mother, Jacqueline, was a World War 2 code-breaker for the US Navy, and his father, Edwin a noted sundial specialist, having suffered in a Japanese POW camp without electricity. Bill was educated at Sidwell Friends School, and upon matriculation in 1973, enrolled into Cornell University, from where he graduated with a degree in science and mechanical engineering. Bill initially found a job at the multi-national corporation, The Boeing Company, being credited with inventing a hydraulic resonance suppressor tube used on the Boeing 747 - which was the basis of his net worth - and even tried to become an astronaut, but met with multiple rejections from NASA.
Meantime, Bill started doing stand-up comedy on the side, and then turned to television, debuting in 1987 on the comedy sketch show entitled “Almost Live!” on KING-TV in Seattle. He then starred in “Back to the Future: The Animated Series”, and eventually in 1993 launched “Bill Nye the Science Guy”. Co-created by Nye, James McKenna and Erren Gottlieb, the show mainly focused on the pre-teen audiences, as it aimed to teach and explore a variety of scientific topics. Even though the show finished its run many years ago, “Bill Nye the Science Guy” is still popular in high schools, and on various PBS stations. As the popularity of the latter show grew, so did Nye’s appearances on other television projects. In 1998, he landed a role in Robert King’s “Principal Takes a Holiday”, then starred in “Who Wants to be a Millionaire”, and appeared in “The Dr. Oz Show”.
Additionally, Bill Nye created a science program called “The Eyes of Nye”, which was aimed towards adults rather than children. Since then, Nye has been a guest star on such television shows as “Numbers” with Rob Morrow and Judd Hirsch, “Larry King Live”, “Stargate Atlantis” starring Neil deGrasse Tyson, and “America’s Most Smartest Model”. For his contribution to popularising science, Bill Nye was rewarded with a doctor of science degree from Rensselar Polytechnic Institute, Willamete University, and Johns Hopkins University. In 2010, he was further rewarded with Humanist of the Year Award.
 More recently, in 2013 Bill Nye became a member of “Dancing with the Stars” television show, on which he was partnered with Tyne Stecklein, but was injured and forced to withdraw. In 2014, he was invited to be an interviewer, as well as a guest on an event held in the White House, called “White House Student Film Festival”. All these projects have added steadily to Bill's net worth.
In regards to his personal life, in 2006 Bill Nye started a relationship with the journalist and performer Blair Tindall, and they married later that same year. However, their marriage lasted for several weeks only, as Nye decided to leave when it turned out that the marriage license was invalid; the consequences continued acrimoniously for several years, apparently not completely settled to this day. Bill now divides his time between residences in Los Angeles and New York City.
