ASHLEY GREENE :: BIOGRAPHY
Ashley Michele Greene was born February 21, 1987 in Jacksonville, FL (ironic?) to Joe and Michele Greene. She grew up in Middleburg and Jacksonville, and went to University Christian School before transferring to Wolfson High School when she was in tenth grade. She moved to Los Angeles, California at the age of 17 to pursue an acting career. Ashley has one sibling, an older brother named Joe, who still resides in Jacksonville with her parents.

Ashley initially planned to become a model, but was told that she wasn't tall enough to be a runway model and should instead focus on commercials. After taking commercial and acting classes, she fell in love with acting and realized that she preferred it over modeling. Ashley thus graduated high school early at the age of 17 and moved to L.A. to pursue an acting career. Since then, she has appeared as a guest on many popular television programs, such as Punk'd and Crossing Jordan. Ashley's big break came in 2008 when she was cast as Alice Cullen in Twilight, a film based on the novel of the same name by Stephenie Meyer. Ashley will be reuniting with her Twilight co-star Kellan Lutz in the upcoming movie Warrior. She will also reprise her role as Alice in the 2009 sequel to Twilight, New Moon.
