Rachel Magee

Born in the UK, Rachel moved to Austin, TX. in 1998. In 2002, she joined her local union, IATSE Local 205, and served as her union's president from 2011 to 2022. As part of her duties, she became an Austin CLC delegate and later began serving as a trustee. In 2020, while out of work due to the pandemic, she stepped into the role of Secretary Treasurer. Outside of this role, Rachel works in live entertainment as a stagehand under multiple union contracts and as a Props Supervisor under union contracts with Austin Opera and Ballet Austin.

Rachel believes union membership is the only way to improve the health and prosperity of ordinary working Americans.
