With a father like Israel Horovitz,
who is a play and screen writer, it comes as no real surprise
that show business runs through the veins of the Horovitz
family. Rachael, who is Adrock's
older sister, started her film career with an acting appearance
in Author! Author! (1982), at time when the Beastie
Boys were doing small gigs in support of Pollywog
Stew. Her brothers, Matthew and Adam Horovitz, have
both taken on acting roles as well.
Rachael discovered that her true calling was not to be
in front of the camera, but instead behind it. As a producer
she has made the following movies: No Telling (1991),
Separation Anxiety (1997), Next Stop Wonderland
(1998), and State and Main (2000). Her production
company is Fine Line Features which she joined in 1996.
It is based out of New York, and this fact has played to
her advantage."Having cultivated numerous high-profile
relationships in New York's tightly-knit filmmaking community,
Horovitz was instrumental in securing director David Mamet's
next film, State and Main, for Fine Line." (quoted
from the Golden Trailer website)
Now that Adam Horovitz has moved
back to New York, he can see his sister whenever he wants
to. She is the Senior Vice President of Production and Acquisitions
for Fine Line features. Among other titles, Rachael Horovitz
is working on I Was Amelia Earhart and Alexander
Payne's About Schimdt. Also to her credit, Horovitz
was a key player in the acquiring Bernardo Bertolucci's
critical hit Besieged and was instrumental in getting
director Michel Gondry's Human Nature, which is based
on a script by Academy Award nominee Charlie Kaufman (who
worked on Spike Jonze's Being
John Malkovich), for Fine Line.
