This spring, Rice served as Executive Producer and Creator of a television pilot in which she plays the lead role.

She was also cast as a Regular, along with Jennifer Garner, Eion Bailey and Elizabeth Mitchell, in Significant Others, a ColumbiaTriStar television series. In Do Over, Rice played KAREN LARSEN, a mom, very much ahead of her time, in the “80’s period” show for the WB.

With a multitude of Movies for Television under her belt, Rice has starred in The Premonition, Deadly Web, McBride: The Doctor Is Out, Really Out, and Deadly Family Secrets.
