Noa Tohar Tishby (Hebrew: נועה טוהר תשבי; born May 22, 1975)[1] is an Israeli actress, producer and singer.
Career
Tishby received a drama scholarship to the Tel Aviv National Museum of Arts and went on to play the lead in the Israel's soap opera Ramat Aviv Gimmel. Tishby also appeared in Five Minutes Walking and the drama 2.3 Times a Week playing a singer called Ella. Her album Nona was the first English-speaking full album released by an Israeli artist. Nona was also released in Japan by Virgin Records.
In the United States, Tishby appeared in Michael Bay's The Island with Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson. She also was cast in leading roles in the indie films Fatwa and Connecting Dots – the latter film winning first prize at the NY and LA Independent Film Festival. Tishby's television credits include NCIS, Leverage, CSI: Miami, CSI: NY, Nip/Tuck, The 4400, Las Vegas, and Star Trek: Enterprise.
Tishby's recent projects are The Ghost of Girlfriends Past for Warner Brothers opposite Matthew McConaughey, as well as recurring roles on HBO's Big Love and ABC's The Deep End.[2]
As producer
Tishby serves as co-executive producer of the program In Treatment alongside Mark Wahlberg and others. Ultimately, by selling the show, Tishby created a previously non-existent connection between Israeli entertainment content and the US entertainment market.[3][4][5]
Recently, Tishby set up three additional television projects in the US: Screenz and A Touch Away for HBO and a comedy for MTV. Tishby’s production company is called "Noa’s Arc".
Politics
Tishby is a member of AIPAC (the American Israel Public Affairs Committee) and has traveled to Washington, D.C. to lobby on Capitol Hill. She is also a member of The Israeli Consulate Speakers Bureau and the ILC (Israeli Leadership Council). She is also part of Summit Series, an organization for young entrepreneurs, as well as a member of, and is a mentor for, Women In Film.
For two and-a-half years, Tishby served in the IDF as a singer with a military performing group. Following the 2010 MV Mavi Marmara, Tishby took to Twitter to defend Israel's actions. She is co-Founder of the digital activism group Act For Israel. The Gaza flotilla raid was a military operation by Israel against six civilian ships of the "Gaza Freedom Flotilla" on 31 May 2010 in international waters in the Mediterranean Sea. Nine activists were killed in the raid. The flotilla, organized by the Free Gaza Movement and the Turkish Foundation for Human Rights and Freedoms and Humanitarian Relief (İHH), was carrying humanitarian aid and construction materials, with the intention of breaking the Israeli blockade of the Gaza Strip.[6]
Personal life
Tishby was born in Tel Aviv. She is from a Jewish family (from Russia, Poland, and Austria).[7]
Tishby was married to Australian media personality, Andrew Günsberg.[8][9][10] In December 27, 2011, Gunsberg and Tishby told their Twitter followers that their marriage was over.[11]
In November 2015, she and American businessman Ross Hinkle welcomed the birth of the first child for both, a son named Ari Ford Tishby Hinkle.[12][13]
