Jessica Afton


Full Bio
Raised in Las Vegas to a production family. My father was a production Teamster, my mother a hair/MU artist. I grew up on set. After getting my BFA in performance, I returned home to switch gears and work in production as a PA for major films/television such as Royal Pains, Now You See Me, The Amazing Race, and countless commercial spots. In the past two years, I have made another transition relocating to New York and focusing again on my acting, with a new love for writing as well. My recent work includes 'Affection', shot by Sundance Alum Darren Joe and 'Heart and Hull' written and directed by NY-48 Hr Film Festival winner Ryan Gallagher. I recently wrote and produced my first short film, directed by award-winning commercial director Corydon Wagner.
