Rita Rucker was born on June 18th in Fontana, California. As a child growing up in Morrow, Georgia Rita was very active with many scholarly and extracurricular activities throughout grade school. Some activities included cheerleading, gymnastics, marching band, danceline, Girl Scouts, Beta Club, and 4H. The dramatic arts chose Rita at the young age of 9 where she was able to get her first taste of the stage life at the Clayton County Performing arts Center performing in "Once on this Island" and "Annie". It wasn't until after returning to her birthplace, attending her first two years of college at California State University San Bernardino, and being 1 of 2 Theater Scholarship recipients, that Rita started to consider acting as a serious career.

Now relocated back in the Atlanta area and a current transfer student at Georgia State University with a Film and Video major, Rita is still making moves in the Southeast's growing entertainment industry.; some of her most notable acting and on-camera training comes from the Actor's Breakthrough under the leadership of Emmy Award-winning GregAlan Williams. After graduation Rucker has every intention to pursue her acting career full time. One of Rita's goals before graduation is to obtain an internship at casting company, major studio or television station in order to expand her knowledge of the film and television industry full-circle. Extended knowledge of the whole production process from development to distribution is important to her. Rucker strongly feels that knowing your way around a set puts you at a great advantage as an actress.
