After becoming a household name and appearing in numerous TV shows, films, theater productions, and fashion campaigns, Tishby moved to Los Angeles where she sold the Israeli TV show In Treatment to HBO, which made history as the first Israeli TV show to become an American series.

She is the founder of “Act for Israel,” Israel’s first online advocacy organization, and is the author of ISRAEL: A Simple Guide to the Most Misunderstood Country on Earth.
