Like her early life and family background, Anne Steves is also low-key about her career, except that some sources claimed her as a housewife.

Some sources claim that Anne’s fortune is in the 6 digits. On the other, accordingto Celebrity Net Worth, Rick Steves has a net worth of $10 million, thanks to his television showRick Steves’ Europe (2000-present) and success as an author- he wrote the first guideEurope Through the back doorin1979.

In2017, the American travel writer and hosts donated $4 million to the YWCA for the construction of housing for homeless women and children. Also in2011, Rick Steves donated $1 million to theEdmonds Center for the Arts and Cascade Symphony Orchestra.
