Although Johnny Crawford has a whopping 61 acting credits to his name (via IMDb), Celebrity Net Worth reports that he was worth around $500,000 at the time of his death. And while Crawford only had one role in the last two decades — he played William S. Hart in the 2019 film, "The Marshal" — he's best known for his roles on "The Rifleman," which aired from 1958-1963, "Manitee Theatre," and "William Tell." He also guest-starred on popular shows like "Little House on The Prairie," "Hawaii Five-0," "Mister Ed," and more.
Not only was Crawford a talented actor, he also had a passion for music, which is part of the reason why he took a break from acting in the late 1990s. Per Crawford's personal website, he led The Johnny Crawford Dance Orchestra, which "specialized in Big Band jazz and swing music from his favorite era," and was "ranked among the top orchestras of its kind in Los Angeles."
Sadly, Crawford suffered at the hands of both COVID-19 and pneumonia towards the end of his life. As noted on his personal website, Crawford was living in "a memory care residence" before contracting both illnesses. In his memory, Crawford's wife and brother are committed to sharing his home movies in order to keep his legacy alive.
