Elvin recently appeared on CNN:
Elvin Tibideaux from the The Cosby Show works at Trader Joe’s in Clifton, New Jersey. Elvin was played by actor Geoffrey Owens. Elvin was the husband of Sondra Huxtable from 1985 until the show’s last season in 1992.
Geoffrey Owens Net Worth 2018
Geoffrey Owens is currently worth $90,000. He’s one of the many African American actors who was unable to find work after appearing on a hit series. Although Geoffrey is only making $11 an hour he’s doing better than Bill Cosby.
The tweet below explains that Owens most likely has bills to pay. You can’t knock the hustle!
Owens is from a successful family. He’s the son of former United States Congressman Major Owens. Sadly, Major Owens passed away in 2013 of congestive heart failure. Geoffrey’s mother, Ethel explains that she shares a two-story house with Geoffrey in Montclair, New Jersey.
Geoffrey isn’t the only former actor who fell from grace. We recently wrote an article on Maia Campbell from In The House and her struggles with drug addiction. Cole from Martin, actor Carl Payne worked as a car salesman to pay his bills.
The tweet below reveals that he has been working at the store for about a year.
