Mishy Harman

Israel Story
Participates in 1 Session
After completing his military service in the IDF, he did his undergrad at Harvard where he studied history and wrote a senior thesis about the Falash Mura in Ethiopia. He then received the Harvard-Cambridge Scholarship to do an M.Phil at Cambridge (UK), where he read archeology and wrote about pig bones and the ethnogenesis of Judaism. Deeply in love, he returned to Harvard to reunite with a girl (never happened), and spent a year teaching history and history of science courses. After seven long years abroad he realized that he missed home, and subsequently returned to Jerusalem, where he is currently writing his Ph.D. about a 19th century Protestant missionary at the Hebrew University. Mishy is very active as a social entrepreneur: Right after college he founded a Boston-based social networking startup that had projects in many countries around the world. His biggest passion, however, is his new radio show – Sipur Israeli – which is essentially an Israeli version of This American Life.
