Ward was the youngest of four siblings, and her parents were both professional actors and drama coaches. When Ward was four years old, the family moved to Honolulu, Hawaii.

In the mid-1990s, Ward had a recurring role on the show ''Party of Five''. Following the death of her ''Party of Five'' character, Ward took the lead role in the Cold War UFO thriller ''Dark Skies''. Since the cancellation of ''Dark Skies'', Ward has kept busy appearing in mainly direct-to-video films such as ''Tick Tock'' and ''Mirror Man'' as well as TV series such as ''Summerland'',''Sports Night'' ''Kevin Hill'', and ''Boomtown'', in which she had a substantial part.
