Originally from Manhattan, Kansas, she has been performing in New York City for over a decade.
Everett is the youngest of six children born to Donn James Everett and Frederica 'Freddie' Everett. Her siblings are Brinton, Brad, Alice, Brian and Brock. As Everett stated on the podcast Amy Schumer Presents: 3 Girls, 1 Keith (episode 2: "Moms and Stuff"): “I’m from Manhattan, Kansas - the little apple. And my dad was mayor at one point, and then so was my brother many years later. So we’re kinda like the Kennedys of Manhattan, Kansas." Her father, who also served in both houses of the Kansas state legislature, died in 2007.
Everett's mother was a music teacher and gave her a love of music. Her parents officially divorced when she was eight but had been living apart since her early years. Her father, an attorney, was not around much.
