Tasha grew up in Camden living with her mother and twin sister, Sidra Smith. Her childhood is not like the one described in the books, as her mother fell under the influence of drugs, which eventually led to Tasha`s drug problems in her teens and early 20s. However, she managed to overcome these problems by accepting God and converting to Christianity.
Upon her successful rehab, she entered the acting industry, and debuted in the film entitled “Twin Sisters” which also featured her sister Sidra. Although it was only a small role, it was enough to propel her deeper into the industry, and in 1995 she appeared in the film “Let It Be Me” which featured Campbell Scott and Jennifer Beals in the main cast. Following her success on the big screen, Tasha dedicated herself more to TV in the following years. In 1996 she earned a role in the critically acclaimed TV series “Boston Common”, aired for two seasons. Soon then earned the role of Tanya Cole in the “The Tom Show” aired from 1997 to 1998, which also increased her popularity and net worth.
At the beginning of the 2000s, she turned more to films than TV series, and in 2004 she appeared in the film “The Whole Ten Yards”, alongside Bruce Willis, Matthew Perry and Amanda Peet. In 2007, she appeared in the films “Why Did I Get Married” and “Daddy`s Little Girls” both directed by Tyler Perry. In the next few years she continued to collaborate with the famous director and actor, appearing in TV series and films “Meet The Browns” (2009-2012), “Why Did I Get Married Too” (2010), alongside Janet Jackson, and “For Better Or Worse” (2011-2014), for which she won the Outstanding Actress in a Comedy Series award.
Her latest ventures in the acting industry include roles in the TV series “Power” (2015) and Empire, furthermore, she is to appear in the film “Polaris” scheduled for a release in late 2015 as it is currently in post-production, which will also increase her net worth.
