Ashley Edner is an award winning actress who is only 12 years old. Just five years ago, Ashley made her feature film debut working opposite Winona Ryder in LOST SOULS playing a sweet child with a not so sweet agenda.

Ashley's ease in going from comedic to dramatic roles is evident as she has over thirty guest starring roles to her credit. An emotional role in CBS's JUDGING AMY earned Ashley a Young Artist Award nomination and she won a Young Artist Award for her compelling portrayal of Melissa Bates in an episode of USA's THE HUNTRESS.





More In addition to guest starring, Ashley had recurring roles on the EMMY® award winning sketch comedy MADtv on FOX and played Rebecca Fyoomay on THE AMANDA SHOW on Nickelodeon.

Her love for animals made her work in RAIN one of her favorite roles. The film is based on a true story of a German Shepard named Rain who is trained to fight in the Vietnam War where his courage in the face of adversity wins the respect and loyalty of his platoon. Ashley's performance as Amy Davis, working opposite Susan Dey, in the family war drama earned her another Young Artists Award nomination.

In the DICKIE ROBERTS, FORMER CHILD STAR Ashley worked with David Spade showing her versatility as an actress in the Paramount Pictures comedy about a thirty-something former child star who hires a foster family to re-create the childhood he never had.

Ashley has an amazing ability to do "voices" and she has lent her talent to several animated projects. Recently she voiced a five-year-old British girl in an animated feature film called GNOMEO AND JULIET for Elton John's production company. Ashley is in good company as Academy Award® winner Dame Judi Dench and Kate Winslet also provide voices for this new Disney-backed venture about garden gnomes.

In one of Charles M. Schultz's beloved Peanuts cartoons, Ashley brings 'Sally' to life in IT'S THE PIED PIPER, CHARLIE BROWN.

Ashley has several upcoming projects: the Dreamworks film HOUSE OF SAND AND FOG starring Jennifer Connelly and Ben Kingsley and she just completed Hallmark Channels telefilm MONSTER MAKERS opposite Academy Award® nominee Linda Blair due to be released in the fall.

After a chance meeting with Britney Spears, Ashley was asked to appear as pop superstar's younger self at the beginning of her stage performance on the 42nd Annual GRAMMY® Awards just days before it aired. That led to another thrilling and challenging moment for Ashley when she performed Live on stage with OSCAR® winner Jon Voight on HBO's Britney Spears Live From Las Vegas, playing the young Britney Spears for an enthusiastic crowd of almost 20,000 people.

When this multi-talented young actress is not in front of the camera, Ashley enjoys singing, dancing, hanging out with her friends and little Maltese. Her family is very supportive especially big brother Bobby who is also an actor.

    Ashley is an amazing actress! hide show

    Ashley Edner is a great actress. She is great in doing comedy and that can be seen in the show "Listen Up!". Her character was by far one of the funniest ones on the show even if she was just a guest star a few times. At the young age of 14 (almost 15 on Dec 17), she's accomplished more than some of the adult actors and dancers. She's performed on the Britney Spears Vegas show and has done such shows as MadTV and Summerland. She's already worked with some of the great actors of our day like Toby Maguire, Kirsten Dunst (Spiderman), David Spade, Jessica Simpson and others! She'll be causing a storm in no time.
