Steven Kitts (sometimes Steve Kitts) is the former stepfather of Rivers and Leaves Cuomo. He was married to Beverly Shoenberger from 1976 until 1989. Kitts is mentioned by name in the lyrics for "Say It Ain't So." According to the book The Pinkerton Diaries, he remarried a woman named Sue in 1996. Rivers said the following of him in 2020 in a Riverpedia entry:

Was my step-dad from 1976 to 1989. Age 5 to 18, so he basically raised me. Cool guy. Still lives in Connecticut. He played goalie for his soccer team in high school...[He] actually lived with us when my brother and I were babies. Along with about 10 other hippies / Zen students. I think Steve was known as the guy who made bread for the house. (Actual bread, not money.)
