How to Be a Jew … Like Ayelet Zurer

Israeli American actress Ayelet Zurer has been in everything from Israeli teen shows to big Hollywood productions such as Munich. She joins us today to talk about her latest show, House of David, streaming on Amazon Prime. We discuss both the significance of a big-budget production focused on a Jewish story and Ayelet’s approach to developing a character without much source material to go on.

Hosted by Courtney Hazlett, Rabbi Diana Fersko, and Josh Kross, each episode of How to Be a Jew takes a look at a current, cultural topic and what it means for us as Jews, and how we react to it because we are Jews.
