Becca grew up in Marietta, Georgia as the youngest of two girls and the daughter of two attorneys.[1] She was a cheerleader in seventh and eighth grade and did dance after that.[2]She transferred schools halfway through her senior year. She had transferred from a theater arts school to a public one, and began to get bullied by girls who called her "theater freak" and "nerd."[3] They told her she would never become successful or a star,[1] and one girl threatened to beat her up.[4] She also received harsh text messages and her only friend began to ignore her. Because of the bullying, she began skipping school events, like pep rallies,[5] and didn't walk at her graduation.[4] She supports anti-bullying and is the female spokesperson for Bullyville.[3]She graduated from Wheeler High School in 2004.[1] She is an alumnus of AMDA, a performing arts college.[6]

Career

The first time Becca stepped on stage was at age four as a Christmas tree in her school's holiday pageant.[7] She moved to New York when she was eighteen to get working right away.[1] She's done small theater projects, though most of them were as an understudy, and toured with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra in 2011.[2] Glee is her first big project.

Quotes

  • I wasn't always great at coping with bullying, but I learned over the years. I would sometimes get so sick of being bullied that I would gain courage to strike back at my antagonists, which rarely made me feel better. I definitely had to learn to rise above the animosity or I would have crumbled into a million pieces.[5]
  • People say things they would never have the courage to say in person, and it gets really cruel sometimes. Even now, being on the show, I deal with a lot of people saying really mean things to me on Twitter, but I know if I ever met these people that they would never be able to say these things to my face. Or I hope they wouldn't. When I read these things, I just wish so badly that people could be more sensitive and know how much words can hurt.[5]
