Ashley Eichhorn –Thompson is originally from Maryland and has a BFA in Music Theatre from Penn State University. After moving to New York, she continued to study acting extensively, including The Circle-In-The-Square Theatre School. After years on the theatrical stage, with a continued passion for the theatre arts, Ashley sought a change of direction. Inspired by the mission of WET, she began as an intern in November 2006. This internship evolved into a full-time position as Assistant Producer for WET’s acclaimed Off-Broadway productions of BFF, A Perfect Couple and the much-celebrated WET’s Risk Takers Film Series, a free citywide media literacy and leadership program for teenage girls.
