Since the days of King David, the Jewish people never had an artist like Naomi Shemer, whose music was sang by so many and had such a vast and dramatic effect and influence on the Jewish and Israeli narrative.
Over 1,000 songs were written and composed by Shemer. Many of which tells the story of the State of Israel - from its birth to our days, in happy times and in sad ones.
Her work is still very much ‘alive' and cherished by all.
Naomi Shemer belongs to everyone, in the Jewish State and across the world.

We would like to thank you for you rich and insightful presentation you delivered for our
participants, about Naomi Shemer.
They were very thrilled and interested to hear you talking about the milestones in her life, and how you connected it to the story of the State
of Israel.
It is very challenging to have the attention of adolescents (boys and girls between the ages
of 14-19) for more than an hour, but you charismatic and delightful attitude, and your wonderful storytelling skills created a great and memorable evening.
