Donations Post Hurricane Helene

As weak as it may initially appear to just post a donation link, I think it shows strength and courage to allow yourself to receive all blessings sent to me by folks thinking of Asheville and myself after Hurricane Helene. Please feel free to support myself and my child while I navigate a new world of motherhood after a natural disaster.

As a community there is a great need as well for financial and supply based support. @BelovedAsheville does great work for the community and @GraceCovenantPresbyterianChurch has already paid out over 600,000$ in rental assistance. Please consider supporting them as well as myself directly.

Bio

If you mix a New Jersey dryness with a Southern Appalachian sensibility and add a touch of Jewish guilt, you get the humor that is Becca Steinhoff. Her warm sarcasm and quick wit shows through in her easily annoyed yet buoyant perspective on everyday human interaction. Becca’s ease and appeal has been showcased at events including the Asheville Comedy Festival, clubs such as the DC Improv, and venues such as the historic Howard Theatre and American Shakespeare Company.

Slice of Life Comedy @ The Pulp circa 2019

I am a comedian and writer est circa 2007 in Asheville, NC. I spent a few years doing comedy in Washington DC where I opened for comics including David Alan Grier,  Josh Blue, Alonzo Bodden, and Fortune Feimster. Then I spent a few years in NYC opening for 60 other comics before me at classic names pulled out of a bucket mic. Now I’m back in Asheville with 15+ years of comedy experience under my belt. Opening for Janeane Garofalo at The Orange Peel June 2019 was a huge highlight as well.

“omg she’s so tiny.” I know, but look I’m standing next to her!

At this point, my comedy has a specialty of working through difficult situations both as an audience and as a collective. Returning to outdoor socially distant shows in a COVID-19 world was challenging but we made it through. Hurricane Helene feels more concentrated to Asheville but just as traumatic. My favorite thing to do on stage is unite a room full of people in a room together into one audience.

Memoirs & Mantras

I wrote a book in 2014 called Memoirs & Mantras. It sat in my documents unedited for years, piling up dust and shame for unfinished work. At long last, I am moving past my shame and perfectionism to edit this book and post pieces up on this website to be read and enjoyed. I hope you can find a memoir or a mantra you resonate with.

  1. Sorry I didn’t get to see you in action his trip. Say hi when you come up to NJ!

  2. Becca, thank you so much for your donation of $172 to Asheville Poverty Initiative/12 Baskets Café! We would love to add you to our email list. There’s a form for that at the bottom of our home page, or you can just email me directly.

    Many thanks!

  3. Hi, Becca. I wanted to let you know that the man you interviewed with recently on his podcast abused me for over five years. I still suffer the traumatic effects of his abuse to this day. He hates women and loves to lie and gain attention from his followers. The only reason he is beginning a new podcast is that he is running from still more scamming and abuse accusations. Please reconsider your support of his 20 year legacy of sexual, emotional, and spiritual abuse of women.

  4. The man I am referring to, is the real demon Ryan Jeffrey Singer. Please be careful, Becca. He is not a safe person to be around, especially if you’re a woman or a trans person.
