Ashley Fink was born in Houston, Texas, and began her acting career at an extremely early age. By the time she reached the age of two, she was already producing full-scale productions for her parents, showcasing her entrepreneurial spirit by charging them admission. This precocious start set the stage for her future success.
As fate would have it, her family relocated to Los Angeles, where Ashley enrolled in a prestigious performing arts high school. This marked the beginning of her extensive experience in national tours, where she took on leading roles in The Wizard of Oz, playing the Lion, and You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, portraying the iconic character of Lucy.
Ashley's talent soon caught the attention of Hollywood, and she landed a starring role in the Tribeca Film Festival hit, Fat Girls. The film earned numerous awards, and Ashley embarked on an international film festival tour, solidifying her reputation as a rising star.
Since then, Ms. Fink has made numerous television appearances on popular shows such as "ER," "Hung," "Huge," and most notably, as fan favorite Lauren Zizes on FOX's hit series "Glee." Some of her personal favorite film credits include the indie horror cult hit, All About Evil, as well as the Glee LIVE 3D Concert film.
Ashley is proud to be a major player in both the 24 Hour Plays and 24 Hour Musicals, two organizations that benefit urban arts education. She has also ventured into filmmaking, producing and starring in two short films that premiered at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival in 2013 and 2014.
Today, Ashley resides in Los Angeles with her feline companion, Fred.
