Biography

Rachel Annette Helson is a New York City based filmmaker. In 2024, she directed her fourth feature film: an adaptation of the Bestselling novel THE AIR HE BREATHES. Her short film GOOD DAUGHTER qualified for the 2025 Academy Awards in the Best Live Action Short Film category – and is currently being developed into a feature. As a character-driven director, Rachel is heavily influenced by her acting background (credits include: FULL CIRCLE, THE KNICK and LAW & ORDER: SVU.)
