Rachel was a childhood friend to Bruce Wayne. Rachel's mother worked for Bruce's parents, Thomas and Martha Wayne and the two often played together on the grounds of Wayne Manor. After Bruce's parents were murdered by a mugger, Rachel's mother sought other employment and left Wayne Manor with Rachel. Rachel and Bruce remained close even after he fell in the future Batcave, but their friendship was never the same.

Rachel enrolled in law school and got an internship at Gotham's District Attorney's Office during her first year. After Chill was murdered for testifying against Mafia boss, Carmine Falcone, Bruce revealed to Rachel that he intended to kill Chill himself. Rachel was horrified, and told Bruce that his late parents would have been ashamed of him. Soon afterward, Bruce left the United States and Rachel continued her studies in law school. Years later, she became Assistant District Attorney. Rachel also had a brief relationship with her boss, District Attorney, Carl Finch.
