My "Bio"

 Ava Smartt is a native Texan and trans woman whose incisive comedy tinkers with subjects on the border of right and wrong. Ava uses her small town charm to guide the audience into a liminal space where they feel comfortable to temporarily tip-toe over the blurred lines of what is and isn't acceptable to laugh at.

Ava was born and raised in the desolate yet pastoral town of Bonham, Texas, moved to Austin, Texas when she was a senior in high school, obtained a degree in philosophy after attending Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas, and is now terrorizing public parks with her dog, Ellie, all around ATX.

Credits

I've performed on the Out of Bounds Comedy Festival, Moontower Comedy Festival, Altercation Comedy Festival, and Austin's Pride Festival. I have also spoken at Texas Comic Con, been heard on Sirius XM's Raw Dog Comedy channel, and was an uncredited extra in Season 3 Episode 3 of the tv show Prison Break. 
My podcast, Gender Fluids, was nominated for Best Local Podcast 2018 in the Austin Chronicle's Best of Austin Awards and is part of the WhoHaha podcast network.
In addition to standup comedy I also involve myself in other fun adult oriented projects.
Here is a trailer to a fabulous erotic short I was the Artistic Director on. 
Directed by Jacob Berardi, Oh Baby was accepted in to the Seattle Erotic Cinema Society Fest and received an honorable mention from the LA Underground Film Forum.
