Well, to make a long story short, Steven Spielberg is Jewish!

Since Steven Spielberg's mother is Jewish, and in Orthodox Judaism and Conservative Judaism, those with a Jewish mother (or those who underwent a halakhic conversion) are considered Jewish, then that makes him Jewish. His father is Jewish too.

Steven Spielberg (whose full birth name is Steven Allan Spielberg) was born on December 18, 1946 in Cincinnati, Ohio, U.S..

Steven Spielberg earned $100 million between June 2012 and June 2013, more than anyone in Hollywood besides Madonna. Most of the money comes from his library of hit movies like ''Jaws,'' ''E.T.'' and ''Jurassic Park.'' He has directed 27 movies, which grossed $9 billion. Won 3 Oscars for films ''Schindler's List'' and ''Saving Private Ryan.'' His push into TV finally seems to be paying off. After flops like ''Smash,'' Spielberg is showing promise with ''Under the Dome'' and ''The Americans.''
