Fleischer earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Film at The USC School of Cinematic Arts. After graduation, she began work on her first feature film, the award-winning documentary Without A Home. The film chronicles her personal experiences documenting the lives of the homeless in her native city and was released in November of 2011.

Rachel is the daughter of actor/comedian Charles Fleischer, best known as the voice of Roger Rabbit. Growing up she was constantly surrounded by artists and found herself performing, playing music and directing since she was a young girl.

In addition to her film work, Fleischer has directed music videos for artists like Ariana Delawari, whose debut album was released on David Lynch’s music label. Her most recent music video was for Lots of Love, whose forthcoming album is being released on Robert Schwartzman of Rooney’s label California Dreamin’.

In keeping true to her activist roots, Fleischer recently launched a digital campaign called “What Can I Do?,” to raise awareness and compassion about homelessness through art and social action. Fleischer’s Huffington Post Blog features articles and videos which discuss homelessness and offer information and tools to help others become more informed and compassionate about the issue. She is actively involved in the Jewish Federation where she sits on the social action committee.

In 2011 Fleischer had a solo photography exhibit and was featured in a show benefiting the esteemed international organization Human Rights Watch. Most recently her photography was featured in United Way’s first annual art show entitled “Faces of Homelessness” at the Downtown Art Walk. Her photographic work has also been published in a Taschen book on Current Cinema.

Today, Fleischer is recording an album and actively writing and developing a slate of Film and Television projects for herself to direct and act in. Most recently she finished They’re With Me, a short film she wrote, directed and stars in alongside Jason Ritter, Jerry Lacy & Michael Laskin.
