Peter Ostrum – Veterinarian

Peter Ostrum only worked on one movie during his Hollywood career – in the 1971 film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, where he played Charlie Bucket. The entertainment industry was probably not for Ostrum since he didn’t sign the three-picture contract after doing Willy Wonka. For whatever reason, not pursuing his acting career led him to a better place. He soon realized that his calling is far off being an actor, but instead, he became more interested in animals, especially horses.

He decided to get a Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1984. Currently, he resides in Lowville, New York, where he also continues to practice his field. To this date, he is not seen appearing in any shows and lives a very private life. He has a net worth of $500,000, and we hope his new work supports his excellent credit score.
