Asner was a longtime E! personality. During her peak with the network, she hosted six hours of programming daily. Among the series she hosted were Revealed with Jules Asner, E! News Live and Wild On!. She also hosted many live specials. Asner received a Prism Award for her interview show Revealed with Jules Asner. Before joining E! Asner was an entertainment reporter for Reuters Television Good Morning England, The Entertainment Show on Sky Television, and Extra. She hosted Live by Request on A&E and was a segment director and producer on Hard Copy. Miramax Books purchased the publishing rights to her first novel, Whacked. The novel recounts the story of a woman who plots revenge on a former lover. Asner said that the plot was based on a breakup she'd been through. Released on June 3, 2008, Asner wrote the screenplay for husband Steven Soderbergh's film Logan Lucky. She chose to use the pseudonym Rebecca Blunt because she did not want the "story" surrounding the film to be that "Soderbergh was directing his wife's script." In 2018, a Twitter account belonging to TheRebeccaBlunt posted photos of Asner and Soderbergh behind the scenes working on Logan Lucky. Asner previously did uncredited rewrite work on Magic Mike and several of Soderbergh's other films. == Personal life ==

From 1992 to 1996, she was married to Matthew Asner and took his surname, making her the daughter-in-law of actor Ed Asner.
