Career

On Hanna-Barbera shows, MacFarlane first began voicing characters, including Johnny Bravo and Dexter's Laboratory. MacFarlane started voicing various characters on Cartoon Network after her time with Hanna-Barbera ended.

Rachael has been involved in other aspects of animation, including being a production manager for The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and Welcome to Eltingville, as well as writing an episode of The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy, where she also met her husband. Seth MacFarlane begged her to help him with his new pilot for the Fox Broadcasting Company, which would be called Family Guy. Rachael MacFarlane appeared on the program as an incidental voice, and her brother told her she was a natural performer and asked her to remain, prompting her to move from New York City to Los Angeles. She began working on both The Walt Disney Company and Cartoon Network, beginning with an incidental cast member on Family Guy for several years and then began doing some voice-over jobs on her own. In 2005, her brother Seth cast her in his second major prime time animated film, American Dad!, in which she portrays Hayley Smith, protagonist Stan Smith's rebellious teenage daughter.
