100 Word Count Bio: Rachael Madori (legally Rachael Noviskey) is an author, suicide prevention educator, and international fine-dining sommelier whose professional experience spans Paris, New York City, South America and beyond. A retired, award-winning adult film actress, Madori’s diverse career took a harrowing turn in 2025 when she survived a near-fatal police shooting during a severe Bipolar 1 manic crisis, culminating in a landmark legal acquittal (Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity). Today, Madori has stepped out of the spotlight to prioritize privacy, strict sobriety, and healing. She is currently writing a raw, prose memoir documenting her lived experiences with incarceration and institutionalization.
