It depends on the actress and what type of work they do. Obviously, famous actresses who star in movies earn WAY more than unknown actresses who star in plays at local theaters.

The super famous celebrities who star in all the hot movies earn several million dollars a year (up to 30 million). That's WAY more than any other profession-doctors, lawyers, CEO's, etc...

However, most actors are in local theater and they are what you call "starving actors". They barely earn enough to pay their rent. The actors who have a contract with a professional theater and are lucky enough to have starring roles in several plays earn more, but still less than 80, 000 dollars a year.
