Margot Kidder Net Worth: Margot Kidder was a Canadian-American actress who had a net worth of $300 thousand at the time of her death in 2018. Margot Kidder was born October 17, 1948 in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. She is best known for her role as Lois Lane in four Superman movies opposite Christopher Reeve, beginning with Superman in 1978.
Between 1968 and 1970 she appeared in several television series including Wojeck, McQueen, Corwin, The Mod Squad and others. Though she also appeared in several other movies and television series of note, during the ’70s and ’80s, she drew more attention to herself when her (later diagnosed) illness of a bipolar condition sent her on a bazaar, downhill spiral. In April, 1996 she disappeared for a time and quite literally became a street person. She was found in a back yard by a homeowner and taken by Los Angeles police to Olive View Medical Center in a distressed state; the caps on her teeth had even fallen out (or possibly ‘taken out’ to disguise herself, as proposed by media at the time). She was later placed in psychiatric care. In 2007, Kidder said she had not had a manic episode in 11 years. She had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder early in her life. On August 23, 2011, Kidder, Tantoo Cardinal, and dozens of others were arrested while protesting against the proposed extension of the Keystone Pipeline. Kidder became a United States citizen on August 17, 2005 in Butte, Montana. She lived much of her adult life in Livingston, Montana. She said the reason for her decision to become an American citizen was to participate in the voting process, to continue her protests against U.S. intervention in Iraq, and at the same time to be free of worries about being deported. Unfortunately, Margot Kidder died on May 13, 2018 at the age of 69.
