Israeli Jewish Born in 1973 Lives in Jerusalem Profession: Editor Works at Local Call Interviewed by: Nahanni Rous
Orly Noy is an editor at Local Call, a political activist, and a translator of Farsi poetry and prose. She is a member of B’Tselem’s executive board and an activist with the Balad political party. Her writing deals with the lines that intersect and define her identity as Mizrahi, a female leftist, a woman, a temporary migrant living inside a perpetual immigrant, and the constant dialogue between them. When she was nine years old, Orly Noy immigrated to Israel from Iran during Iran's Islamic revolution.
