Bob Newhart has four children with his wife, Ginny Newhart. They are Robert William Newhart, Courtney Newhart, Jennifer Newhart and Timothy Newhart.

Unlike their parents, Bob Newhart’s children love to keep their lives away from the media. They live personal lives away from the spotlight.

Newhart rose to fame in 1960 when his album of comedic monologues, The Button-Down reached number one on the Billboard pop album chart; it remains the 20th-best-selling comedy album in history.

The follow-up album, The Button Mind Strikes Back!, was also a success, and the two albums held the Billboard number one and number two spots simultaneously.

Newhart went into acting, starring as Chicago psychologist, Robert Hartley in The Bob Newhart Show from 1972 to 1978, and then as Vermont innkeeper, Dick Loudon on the series, Newhart from 1982 to 1990.
