Who am I? I really hate that question. It reminds me of college applications and self-assessment tests. I’ve been a student, a dancer, an advertising copywriter, an actress, a filmmaker, a fiction writer, a screenwriter, an estate manager for a billionaire family, (yes one of these things is not like the other), and finally a freelance writer and blogger. Add to that a wife and mother of twin girls and I guess its fair to say that who I am is thankfully still evolving. One thing has remained constant throughout my life and that is a curiosity about everything – New York City, politics, parenting, technology, education and the arts.
Beccarama is an attempt to bring all of these things together, comment on them, argue about them and hopefully add something useful – or at least interesting – to the mix.
My posts have been nationally syndicated through McClatchy/Tribune and I also blog at www.nycmomsblog.com. Check it out and see what moms all over the country are talking about!
I am very excited about my latest gig writing a monthly column for the Westside Independent. Look for it the first Monday of every month.
I am available to cover media events, discuss marketing opportunities and review products with candor and honesty.
I welcome your comments and feedback. You can email me directly at rebeccalevey@gmail.com.




Hi Rebecca!
I’ve been reading through your travel blog and I would love to get your opinion….I am planning a 10-14 day trip for september and was hoping to do Paris + Italy…. I am having such a hard time trying to decide where to go, and even removed Paris at one point but am thinking I just must squeeze it in. I will be traveling with my husband, 9 month old and my mom.
Do you think doing Rome and Venice is too much?
I would really appreciate any suggestions,
Best,
Jennifer
Oh, and FYI, I write for the Chicago Moms Blog and also have twins.
I knew I liked you!
