Renée had an uncredited appearance in the director's cut of Lethal Weapon (1987), as well as roles in two late '80s slasher films - final girl Molly in Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers (1988) and first victim Linda in Intruder (1989). Renée Estevez has guest-starred in multiple TV shows, including Growing Pains (1985), MacGyver (1985), ABC Afterschool Specials (1972), Red Shoe Diaries (1992), JAG (1995), and The Division (2001). She appeared in a regular guest-starring role on The West Wing (1999) as Nancy, an assistant in the Oval Office of President Josiah Bartlet (who is played by her father Martin). As of 2015, Renée's final on-screen appearance is The Way (2010), which was directed and written by her brother Emilio, and co-starred Emilio and their father, Martin. She also wrote a few episodes of her brother Charlie's show Anger Management (2012). Renée has been married to Jason Thomas Federico, a chef and golfer, since October 11, 1997.
