Initially, Rhinock entered the oil refinery industry, and served as president of the Covington Public Library Board two terms. After this, he served as member of the Covington city council, going on to serve as mayor between 1893 and 1900.[1]

Rhinock was elected as a Democrat to the 59th, 60th, and 61st Congresses (serving between March 4, 1905, and March 3, 1911), but was not a candidate for renomination in 1910.

For 22 years, Rhinock was connected with theater in New York City and Cincinnati, Ohio, serving as vice president, secretary, and treasurer of the Shubert Organization theater company. He served as vice president of the Loews Theater.[which?] Rhinock later became actively interested in horse racing and racetrack corporations.

Rhinock died at his home in the Bonnie Crest neighborhood of New Rochelle in Westchester County, New York, on September 20, 1926, aged 63. He was interred in Highland Cemetery, Covington.
