Rivkah w/ books

Biography

Rivkah is the artist, writer, and creator of STEADY BEAT. She has been a professional in the print industry for over seven years including commercial photography, design, marketing, and print production--in spite of never having completed college--and has promoted writers and artists across the U.S. However, STEADY BEAT is Rivkah's first personal creation. An artist new to the field of graphic novels, she has been pursuing comics since August 2003, dropping past ambitions in pursuit of her own dreams.

A self-proclaimed workaholic, she has this to say of herself, "I need art like I need my coffee. First thing in the morning and several cups to last me through the day."

Rivkah was born in and still resides in Austin, Texas USA.
