Shulamith Hareven |
| Shulamith Hareven (1930-2003, b. Warsaw, Poland) came to pre-state Israel in 1940 and lived in Jerusalem. She served in the Hagana underground, and was a combat-medic in the 1947-48 siege of Jerusalem.
Hareven was one of the founders of the IDF broadcasts and an Officer in Command/Operations in the IDF. During the early 50`s, she worked in transit camps with refugees from Arab countries and served as a war correspondent during the War of Attrition and Yom Kippur War.
Hareven was the first woman elected as a member of the Hebrew Language Academy. She was a longtime member of the spokesteam of the Peace Now movement, and during the first Intifada she entered Arab refugee camps and reported to the Israeli press. She was also a columnist on current social, cultural and political events. In 1995, the French magazine, L`Express, elected Shulamith Hareven as one of the 100 women "who move the world." |
