Shiri Appleby is Jewish. The actress who played roles in the final season of ER and in Charlie Wilson's War is currently playing a supporting role in HBO's Girls.
Appleby was born in Los Angeles, California, the daughter of Dina Bouader, a Hebrew school teacher, and Jerry Appleby, a telecommunications executive. Her mother is Israeli-born and of Sephardic Moroccan Jewish background, and her father is an American Jew.
Really! Like it matters. First and for-most she's a human being and whether she's Jewish is of no importance to anyone except to Shiri and her family. I'm sure Shiri would be the first to admit she's not defined by her heritage alone.
