Ashley Laurence, also known as Lori Ashley Cohen, is an American actress. She has starred as Kristy Cotton in the Hellraiser franchise.
Her mother is Jewish. It is not (publicly) known what her father’s ancestry is.
These are her parents:

And this is her birth record:

But this casts doubt on David being her biological father.
Her mother married Neely Gassaway Tufts in January 1966, and divorced him the same year in December.
Neither his nor his mother’s obituaries mention Lori.

That’s interesting. I think these are her maternal grandparents?

I didn’t realize Ashley Laurence was a stage name. Lori Ashley Cohen. I like her birth name.
