Born and raised in Tel Aviv, Israel, actress, producer, writer and activist Noa Tishby got her start in the Israeli entertainment industry as a teen in the original musical David. As a producer, Tishby made history with the sale of In Treatment to HBO: the first Israeli television show to become an American series. Her U.S. acting credits includes The Island, The Ghost of Girlfriends Past, Star Trek, Big Love, CSI, Dig and The Affair. Socially and politically passionate, in 2011 Tishby founded the first Israel-focused online advocacy and rapid response organization, Act For Israel, and became a powerful voice for Israel and the Middle East. Presently, Tishby is a keynote speaker and panelist at events around the world and has appeared in such venues as the United Nations General Assembly raising awareness against BDS in 2016, and the UN Salutes Israeli Innovation in 2019. She is a contributor to publications such as The Huffington Post, Jerusalem Post, The Jewish Journal, Tablet and Ynet, where she writes about policy, culture and international relations.
