<p>“Erica was an amazing woman and talented entertainer who touched countless lives with her sharp wit, humour, and genuine zest for life,” the statement said.</p>
<p>“Her memory will live eternally in our hearts.”</p>
<p>Ms Ash impersonated Michelle Obama and Condoleezza Rice on Mad TV, a Fox sketch series, and was a key performer on the Rosie O’Donnell-created series The Big Gay Sketch Show.</p>
<p>Her other credits included Scary Movie V, Uncle Drew and the LeBron James-produced basketball dramedy Survivor’s Remorse.</p>
<p>On the BET series Real Husbands of Hollywood, Ash played the ex-wife of Kevin Hart’s character.</p>
<p>Ash told the Los Angeles Times in 2017 that for a while, the only roles she was offered were similar to that character, but she wanted to have a more varied career.</p>
<p>“I want to make choices based on what I want to read about myself when I’m older. For me, it’s just about growing and moving forward,” she told the Times.</p>
<p>She appeared in the Broadway production Baby It’s You and a touring production of The Lion King.</p>
<p>Ms Ash attended Emory University to study medicine but took a break and went to Japan, where she performed and modelled and her career flourished.</p>
<p>“One thing led to another, so I tell people I’m the Forrest Gump of my field,” Ms Ash told the Times.</p>
<p>“I just blindly, by faith, walked through life and said ‘yes’ to things that were presented to me, and it led me here.”</p>
