Alison Whitney is an all-around hustler! She acts, writes, produces and raises two young humanettes in Los Angeles.

She was born and raised in Rockville Centre, New York, just 46 minutes outside of Manhattan (LA translation: 1 hour and 19 minutes in current traffic).  Raised by two busy lawyers (read: 0% creative juice), Alison was always looking for outlets for her artistry.  It was the kindergarten play, Get Hopping, where Alison landed the leading role as Bunny Sue and never looked back on her acting dreams.  Alison continued to find her way to the stage in both middle and high school, playing roles such as Roz in Moon Over Buffalo, a courtesan twin in A Funny Thing…, and Desmond Tutu (Yup, you read that right. Talk about range!).  She graduated high school with an International Baccalaureate degree in Theatre. 

Come time to apply for college, Alison committed to this acting thing and was accepted to the prestigious NYU Tisch School of the Arts acting program where she studied at the Stella Adler Conservatory.  She worked hard!  Very hard!  Hard enough to graduate early. Within weeks she booked a role in Happy Hour at the Michael Chekhov Theatre. 

From then on, Alison was a working actress.  

Since moving to LA, she has booked work on Black-ish, Super Store, Chicago Med, Midnight, TX, Great News, Conan, General Hospital, Jane the Virgin, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and Tosh.O to name a few.

She starred in such films as A Year and Change (with Bryan Greenberg) She-Ball (with Nick Cannon), Hooking Up (with Corey Feldman and Bronson Pinchot), Polycarp (with Charles Durning) and Bacterium. 

You may also have seen her on the Rachel Ray Show, and on VH1 in the I Love the New Millennium commercial, where she played Paris Hilton. Recently, she booked a national spot for Lowe’s as a Red Vest Associate.  

Alison also was the host of Nintendo Week for two years, which had over 100 episodes streaming on the Wii.

She loves ALL things funny and has studied and performed improv at The Pit in New York City and The Groundlings in LA.   Alison also has a lot of sketch comedy experience and did a ten-month run in Fine Funny and Female at the Bleeker Street Theatre, as well as Recess(ion) at the Bridge Theatre. She had leading roles in Misconceptions  (The Public Theatre), Kennedy’s Children (The SoHo Playhouse),  and Bottom of the 9th  (The Turtle Shell Theatre).   

Alison wrote, produced and starred in two award-winning web series.  She is an on-going contributor to The Catalyst Story Institute with her series, First Child Problems.  Her series, Common Charges, was screened at many festivals and was awarded Best Acting in a Web Series: Hollywood & Vine Festival 2014.

Alison has gone on to utilize her unique comedic voice to normalize issues surrounding Women’s Health.  She has a portfolio of projects about women in relation to their bodies, that make people laugh, squirm, and pee a little. 

On her current slate: AfterBirth (pilot), The Heavy (pilot), and The Hole Truth (short film).
