Bio
Ashton was born and raised in Homestead, Iowa, where he lived on a farm with his parents, older sister, Tausha, and twin brother, Michael. To finance the cost of his education in bio-chemical engineering at the University of Iowa, Kutcher worked as a cereal dust sweeper at the General Mills plant in Cedar Rapids as well as taking on many other jobs to pay for college. After being discovered by a local model/talent scout, he moved to New York to pursue acting.
Since his arrival in New York in August 1997, Kutcher's determination has landed him roles in a National Pizza Hut commercial, an NYU student film entitled "Distance," and a CK Jeans campaign. Other film credits include, "Coming Soon" opposite Gaby Hoffman, "Reindeer Games" opposite Ben Affleck and Gary Sinise directed by John Frankenheimer.
He currently stars on the hit U.S comedy "That 70s Show", as the loveable goof Kelso. He also stars in "Down To You" which stars Freddie Prinze Jr. and Julia Stiles for Miramax and "Texas Rangers" opposite James Van Der Beek and Dylan McDermott. Ashton spent his 2000 summer hiatus filming "Dude, Where's My Car?" for 20th Century FOX. He currently resides in Los Angeles.
