Mirren calls Israel's first female prime minister 'a formidable, intransigent and powerful leader.'

Israel is not alone. Leave it to Dame Helen Mirren to defend Israel, and the Jewish people, with poise. 

Genesis Prize-winner Itzhak Perlman has said he will donate his $1m prize money to music education and helping people with disabilities; Oscar-winning actress Helen Mirren was in Israel to host the Genesis Prize, and much more.

The mayor of Jerusalem hosted actress Helen Mirren during a visit to the City of David and other ancient archaeological sites in Jerusalem, where she enthusiastically explained the significance of history.

Oscar-winning actress Helen Mirren is in Israel to host the Genesis Prize, an award known as 'the Jewish Nobel.' Mirren has visited Israel several times, and has been a vocal critic of anti-Israel activists who have called for a cultural boycott of Israel.

Oscar-winning actress Helen Mirren has agreed to host the award ceremony of Israel's $1 million Genesis Prize in Jerusalem, which is being given to famed Israeli-American violinist Itzhak Perlman.

Helen Mirren says her time working at an Israeli kibbutz shortly after the 1967 Six Day War helped make her the actress she is, and Israel’s Adi Deutch lost his leg from a Lebanon landmine blast, but ran the NYC marathon.
