Early life and family

Alice was born in a family very close to the world of acting. Her father had studied acting at Harvard, her mother at NYU, and her older sister, Sabine Halsey, had shown an interest in acting since the age of three. When her sister started auditioning during the pandemic, the younger Alice immediately took an interest. “If you were my sister, you would know. If I start something, you also want to come, " he said once.

As a child, he had a talent for making people laugh. He has a "trick" to get out of the crib quietly, make a funny face to his mother, and then run away. His childhood games with his brother and friends were always full of drama and character. He began auditioning from a very young age (some sources call the age three for commercials, others about six) and got his first role at the age of seven.

It was his parents who taught him the techniques of Stanislavski and Stella Adler in the living room of the House. Alice has also been learning French for six years, enjoys playing the piano and ukulele, writes stories and songs, and still loves jumping rope.

The series was already extended to a second season even before the first season aired. Alice said she cried when she found out she was chosen because Laura was an icon. He read the entire Laura Ingalls Wilder book after auditioning, and then researched Wilder's life in depth. She felt great pressure to honor Laura's legacy as a writer, a hard worker, and a woman of justice and freedom.
