Heidi was born to a high school teacher, Kay, and laser physicist, Jim Swedberg. Although a native of Hawaii, she grew up in New Mexico where she matriculated from Albuquerque’s Sandia High School in 1984. Subsequently Heidi relocated to Kentucky, where she joined the Actors Theatre of Louisville. In 1989 Heidi Swedberg debuted on television with a small role in the “Matlock” TV series, then later that year debuted on the big screen with the role of Dawn in Norman Jewison’s “In Country” featuring Bruce Willis and Emily Lloyd in the leading roles. These engagements provided the basis for Heidi Swedberg’s overall net worth.

In the early 1990s Heidi’s acting career gained more momentum as she appeared in several movies, including the comedies “Kindergarten Cop” (1990) with Arnold Schwarzenegger in the main role as well as Jim Abrahams‘ motion picture “Hot Shots!” (1991). Parallel to movies, she also performed in several TV series such as “Thirtysomething”, “Quantum Leap”, “Northern Exposure” as well as “Brooklyn Bridge” and “Sisters”. However, the real breakthrough in Heidi Swedberg’s acting career occurred in 1992 when she was cast in the role of Susan Ross in the fourth season of “Seinfeld”. In 1995, she reprised her role in 17 episodes of the show’s seventh season, and in season nine in 1997, Heidi’s Susan Ross appeared in just one episode. To the present day, this role remains Heidi Swedberg’s most memorable one, and it also helped her to further increase her overall net worth.

Some other notable acting appearances of Heidi Swedberg include roles in a variety of TV series such as “Roc”, “Empty Nest”, “ER” and “Gilmore Girls” as well as movies “Galaxy Quest” (1999), “75 Degrees in July” (2000) and “Dragonfly” (2002). It is certain that all these engagements have impacted Heidi Swedberg’s overall net worth in a positive manner.

Apart from acting, Heidi Swedberg has also been actively working on her music career. With her band – Heidi Swedberg and The Sukey Jump Band – she has released two studio albums so far. They debuted with “Play!” in 2009 and in 2013 “My Cup of Tea” hit the charts. With her other band, Smoking Jackets, she performs at ukulele festivals, and regularly circuits the night club scene. Doubtlessly, these musical engagements have contributed to Heidi Swedberg’s wealth.

When it comes to her personal life, Heidi has been married since 1994 to Philip Holahan, with whom she has two children.

#Fact
1Jason Alexander states he liked Heidi Swedberg personally. And that's why he (and the other main cast members) had Swedberg fired from the show because it was "'f*cking impossible' to work with her." (That's supposed to be a direct quote from Jason Alexander about Heidi Swedberg.) Or should I believe that she was not fired from the show, but just put on permanent leave, after her character was killed off?. See article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3110225/George-did-kill-Jason-Alexander-reveals-Seinfeld-screen-fiancee-Susan-killed-cheap-invitations-not-blame.html.
2Currently (2016) plays ukulele and tours with her eclectic folk music act, "Heidi Swedberg and the Sukey Jump Band".
3Contrary to popular belief, her Seinfeld (1989) character, Susan Ross, was not killed off because her on-screen beau Jason Alexander disliked her. Alexander has clarified he very much likes Swedberg personally and considers her to be talented, but was concerned her sense of humor and comedic style contrasted with that of the regular Seinfeld cast. He initially worried this would come across poorly, but eventually realized that her performance worked to the show's advantage, as Susan was not conceived as being a bad person, merely one who just didn't fit in with the Seinfeld gang.
4She plays and teaches ukulele and fronts a popular kid's band, Heidi Swedberg and the Sukey Jump Band. They have released two albums, "Play" (2009) and "My Cup Of Tea" (2013).
5Has two daughters.
6Raised in New Mexico.
7Daughter of Kay, a high school English teacher, and Jim Swedberg, a laser physicist.
8She attended Sandia High School in Albuquerque, New Mexico, from 1980 to 1984.
9Best known as the unfortunate (and lacking in taste) fiancée of George Costanza on Seinfeld (1989) who dies after licking cheap toxic envelopes (bought by George) to mail out wedding invitations.
