Today, at the age of 18, she’s been part of the world of entertainment for four years and has already received impressive roles. She’s also been doing exciting things behind the camera, including directing and producing her own series.


At the same time, she’s studying mathematics and computer science at a local college. Outside of class, Ashley Rae Harper has a promising acting career to manage that seems to require more attention as word spreads about this bright young performer and more roles are offered.


Her role in “All We Got” is already getting a lot of attention. Currently streaming on Amazon Prime, it tells the story of Kristin Baker, a woman who returns to her hometown after many years due to her mother’s death. To fulfill her mother’s final wishes, she has to reconnect with family and friends that she walked away from, and they have to do the same with her.

“All We Got” includes a variety of flashbacks to explore the family dynamics and dysfunction that led up to the eventual estrangement. Ashley Rae Harper plays a younger version of Kristin’s sister Renee.


She recently sat down and shared details about her upcoming projects and the challenge of balancing her studies with her acting.


What’s your role in “All We Got”?

I played young Renee in the film. She was the wild child out of the four siblings. She was a crazy character to play but I had fun with the challenge. I relate well to the characters that I play because most of the time I play teen characters, which I’m grateful for.


How are you able to do so much at once being a student and actress?

I don’t know how I juggle everything, but I sometimes am able to get things done. Having a good schedule helps me.
