Gary Dourdan's success on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation couldn't protect him from financial hardship, leading him to file for bankruptcy in 2012.

Despite his TV career, Dourdan faced significant financial difficulties, including over $1.8 million in debt from unpaid child support, taxes, and credit cards. His financial troubles were compounded by personal issues and ongoing court battles.

Following the bankruptcy, Dourdan worked to rebuild his career, taking on roles in television shows and low-budget films as part of his efforts to regain financial stability.
