Australian actress, Poppy Montgomery, has an estimated net worth of $8 million with salary of $85 thousand per episode of Unforgettable. Montgomery moved from down under to Los Angeles in 1993 (at the tender age of 18) and, with no connections or leads to her name, bought a copy of a book called How to Make it in Hollywood. In that text, Montgomery read an anecdote about one of Julia Roberts' early managers, who had helped engineer some of the actress' early successes. Montgomery searched diligently until she found the manager's telephone number, then so plagued him with calls, one after another, that she ultimately wore down his resistance; he put Montgomery in touch with a manager who helped launch her career. The self-assurance evident in this "breakout strategy" had taken root early in Montgomery's life.

She was born on June 19, 1975, in Paddington, New South Wales, Australia. She is best known for her role as Samantha Spade on Without a Trace. She also stars in the new CBS television series Unforgettable.
