Anders Holm's Wife Emma Nesper Works to Advance Human Rights

Anders Holm's wife is an accomplished philanthropist who's worked for companies like CARE and UCLA. They have a sweet love story that leads up to their wedding. Holm is now married to his high school sweetheart.

Emma Nesper is the wife of American actor, producer, comedian, and writer, Anders Holm. He was born on May 29, 1981, and is best known for being one of the creators and star actors on Comedy Central's "Workaholics." The discovery that he was married sent shockwaves through the internet.

Nesper is a highly qualified professional in the field of philanthropy. She has worked for many companies, doing charity work globally. Today, Holm and Nesper boast a marriage exceeding a decade, a relationship that dates back to their childhood, and they share a son.

Emma Is a Big Professional at What She Does

After graduating from Evanston Township High School in 2000, Nesper enrolled at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism, mass communication, and cultural anthropology by the end of 2004. Nesper took a two-year break and resumed her studies at UCLA, where she graduated in 2008 while serving as an intern at the university.

She is a human rights and global justice philanthropy leader. Nesper has 15 years of experience collaborating with international non-profit organizations to advance human rights, improve healthcare, and improve social development in disadvantaged parts of the world.

Her charitable contributions reach people in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Caribbean. Professionally, Nesper started as an assistant teacher at UCLA in September 2007—simultaneously serving as an intern at Human Rights Watch. Christine Astin is another UCLA alum who married an actor.

Nesper embarked on a new journey in September 2008 when she took on the role of communication specialist at VSI September. After conquering that role, she earned an exciting position change as the communications manager two years later.

Her time at VSI ended after she served as the Communications director. This final role came one year and four months into her role as the communications manager. She had been established in non-profit work and human rights initiatives.

In June 2013, she began working at American Jewish World Service. She served the company for five years and three months. From October 2018 to June 2022, she served as a senior director at CARE—a company dedicated to alleviating gender inequality and human rights abuse.

Anders Holm Stalked His Wife before They Started Dating

Holm first met Nesper at summer camp when he was 12 years old. Holm discussed that years later, when they were in high school together, he saw Nesper from a distance at what he describes as the place to be before cellphones flocked the market, Cosmic Bowling.

Enticed by the white shorts, she wore on the day; Holm developed a crush for the UCLA alum. After stalking her for a few months, Anders approached her, and the couple has been together ever since. He said:

"And then I stalked her for a few months, and it turned out that she's a totally respectable, super smart human with a giant brain and not just a pair of white shorts."

From high school, their relationship developed, resulting in the couple exchanging vows in 2011. When speaking to cosmopolitan, Holm explained that marrying a high school sweetheart is possible when both parties want to make it work.

They Welcomed a Child in 2014

The couple became parents for the first time in 2013 when they welcomed their only child on December 19. Their son was born just two years after they formed a union in 2011. Like Holm, Max Thieriot is another actor who found the love of his life as a child.

Max became engaged girlfriend since the teens, Lexi Murphy, in 2012. They spent seven years together before the engagement and conducted their wedding service the following year.

The actor has kept his child private on social media. There have not been many occasions where his son appeared on his feed, aside from a funny video of him crying as an infant.

The video's caption humorously explains that the baby was crying out of hunger. Nester, on the other hand, lives a very private life. Her Instagram account is private.
