With the support of her family, she began spending summers studying with an acting coach in Los Angeles and returning to school in the fall. After co-starring in her first movie, Animal Room, with Matthew Lillard and Amanda Peet, Heuring graduated from the University of Texas with an Honor's Business degree, and moved to Los Angeles to further her career as an actress.Now residing on the west coast and still heavily influenced by "those who have lived," Heuring often turns to classic novels or "the magic of old movies" to stay grounded. Dividing her time between Austin and Los Angeles, Heuring finds her "smiles and laughter" in her friends, family, and her dog, Stan Musial. She couldn't live without her books, writing and "doing anything outside."With her career steadily climbing, Lori Heuring maintains a credo from her In Crowd experience that she plans to keep with her throughout her life - "Always remember where you came from."
