I’m a native of Georgia, lived most of my life in Atlanta, but I moved to Southern California to marry my beloved Dave back in February of 1996, and we’re still together! We celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary on April 17th, 2008.
I was a professional writer in high school - a byline columnist for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution – in fact, here’s my very first column (sorry for the poor resolution; it’s the only copy I have after the Great Fire of 1976):
I became a professional comedian a few years ago. I finally had my knees replaced in late June 2007, and was about to really break out, making a fine name for myself, but just as things were starting to really come together for me – I was a semi-finalist in the 2006 Orange County’s Funniest Person Contest, and later selected as a quarter-finalist in both the 2007 California’s Funniest Female Contest and the Ultimate Laff-Down XI (within two days of each other, the first comedian to do so in those competitions) – I had to retire because of other health issues which affected my consistency. I’d reached the point where I was simply unable to "get out there" as much as a comedian needs to in order to get funny. That’s not going to change, but my life is still amazing and still devoted to creative pursuits in other areas.

One time when I was 5 years old I was on the Howdy Doody Show and they asked me to do the Bosco commercial live. (I was adorable even then, obviously.) By the time they were ready, I had to pee so bad, I was crossing my legs with anxiety, but I was a pro. I got up there, drank that Bosco, and waited until we got the all-clear sign before I peed on the floor. TV may not be my best medium. Or large.
Filmler
The Long Riders; The Prize Fighter
Albümler
All I have left are CDs. And DVDs. Dave has a few albums, but they’re pretty old and funky (kinda like his sock drawer).
Comedy, film, good television (stop laughing), reading, writing, disciplining children at the grocery store.
Müzik
Everything ~ seriously, *everything* ~ from James Blunt, Green Day, Incubus and Eminem to Yo Yo Ma, Itzhak Perlman and Chopin, to Elvis (The One and Only King), The Beatles and Little Feat, to Toby Keith, Tim McGraw and Gretchen Wilson. I have a non-discriminatory ear (the right one; I'm deaf in the left one).
Filmler
Far too many to list, but includes Happy Feet, GWTW (required for an Atlanta girl), The Princess Bride (I once kissed Mandy Patinkin ~ actually, he kissed me, but that's beside the point), Major League, Office Space, The Green Mile, the original Star Wars trilogy, the first Matrix, the first two Godfathers, and Loverboy (listen, Patrick Dempsey was hot even before he became Dr. McDreamy, and I knew it as soon as I saw that movie, so shut up).
Televizyon
Currently ~ Heroes (!!!), Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, Iron Chef America, Doctor Who, The Daily Show/The Colber(t) Repor(t), Stargate SG-1 and My Name is Earl. Historically ~ The X-Files, Arrested Development, Profit, Buffy *and* Angel, The West Wing, Seinfeld, Friends, Ally McBeal, Chicago Hope, M*A*S*H, and anything with Red Skelton.
Kitaplar
Pretty much anything that's been printed since the beginning of time, with particular interest in books written in English.
Kahramanları
Personal ~ My husband Dave, my best friend Linda (who passed away October 1, 2007), Alan Shepard, anybody who has ever tried to help someone in need. Industry ~ Richard Pryor, Robin Williams, Eddie Izzard, Roseanne, Lewis Black, the whole "Axis of Comedy" thing that Jon Stewart's got going on, Monty Python, and most waitresses.
Kimle tanışmak isterim: George Clooney. And George Clooney. Or a clone of George Clooney. Or a fully-functioning robot of George Clooney. Or some of the hair muck from his hairbrush, really, that's all I need. For now.
I'd also like to meet all these people who supposedly look like me (Spock? Seriously????):
Speaking of Atlanta, here’s a photo of the tornado that went through downtown in March of 2008 ~ you can see the funnel cloud on the far left, just to the right of the tallest building:
Hi Bev! Hope you're doing really good. I was wondering...when was the last time that you were invited to a dive bar for some comedy? Been a while? NEVER??? Well, it just so happens that I'll be performing some stand up comedy on September 8th at 8:30 @: Bernie's 2466 Fender Ave Fullerton, Ca. (between State College Blvd. and Placentia Ave.)
Really? You guys have a street named Placentia? HAAA! Sounds like a Roman Goddess. "ALL HAIL PLACENTIA!" Please do not tell me that 'Placentia' intersects with 'Testiclees' St.
Alright, enough of that. If'n ya ain't got nuthin ta do...competely bored...hopefully you'll give a thought to coming out to Bernie's...on Sept. 8th....at 8:30.

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
