Biography
American political image maker, media strategist, publicist, and event planner whose primary work is for progressive, Democratic, and Jewish causes. He is frequently quoted in U.S., Israeli and Jewish news media, and has had opinion pieces appear in numerous outlets.
In 2004, the Jewish Forward named him among the 50 most influential Jews in America. Eleven years later, JTA called his firm “the lead public relations outfit handling Jewish communal accounts.”
A former Bill Clinton White House press aide, he founded Bluelight Strategies in late 2014 with longtime colleague and Capitol Hill veteran Aaron Keyak, as a successor to Rabinowitz Communications and Rabinowitz/Dorf Communications.
At Bluelight, where he serves as president, Rabinowitz was a founder of Jews for Progress, a pro-Israel super PAC to boost support for 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton among Jews in swing states. In 2012, Rabinowitz was instrumental in creating The Hub, which worked to ensure the Jewish vote for President Barack Obama's reelection. And in 2020, he supported his colleague Aaron Keyak, who left their firm to work full-time for Joe Biden as his Jewish liaison on the presidential campaign and in the transition and since.
He and his wife, Laurie Moskowitz, Principal at Lore Strategies, the campaign advocacy, coalition building and partnerships consulting firm, and former senior director for U.S. campaigns at the ONE Campaign, live in Washington, D.C., with their two sons, Jake and Sammy.
