Biography

Karyn Rachtman is best known for music supervising films such as Pulp Fiction, Clueless, Boogie Nights, and Reality Bites. She was the executive soundtrack producer for the notable soundtracks of Moulin Rouge!, Romeo + Juliet, Office Space & many more.

Throughout her career, Karyn's distinct ability to pair artists and create unlikely collaborations (Elvis Costello and Burt Bacharach) has made her one of the best "matchmakers" in soundtrack history. She is also responsible for the New York Times best selling children's book series "Hip Kid Hop", in which rappers (Doug E. Fresh, LL Cool J Shaggy, etc) wrote and recorded a "read and rap-a-long" - which was distributed by Scholastic nationwide.

Rachtman is currently the CEO of Mind Your Music - a music consulting agency that offers a series of services for film, TV, video games, and brands.
