Her journey in the performing arts began with starring roles in local stage productions in Charleston, which eventually led her to New York City in the early 1970s. After gaining experience in commercials, Rain made her film debut in the crime thriller The Abductors in 1972, followed by notable roles in Wes Craven's The Last House on the Left and Albert T.
