Early life and background

She grew up alongside an older sister and a younger brother. Neeman attended Kadouri Agricultural School and developed interests that include travelling and practising yoga.

Career

Neeman entered the entertainment world as a model at the age of 13. Early in her modelling career she was signed by Roberto Ben-Shoshan’s agency and took part in advertising campaigns for a number of Israeli clothing labels, including Blue Bird, Fox Kids and Octopus. In 2019 she was selected to appear in a global campaign for Adidas, and she has served as an ambassador for activewear brand Anda on her Instagram account.

Her modelling was interrupted when she completed mandatory service with the Israel Defense Forces, during which she served in the Kirya area in Tel Aviv. After finishing her military service she resumed work in show business and transitioned into acting.

Neeman made her acting debut in 2017 in the television series Big Head, playing the character Moriah Muscat. She followed that with roles in a succession of Israeli television productions. In 2018 she appeared as Lior in On the Spectrum, a series that later inspired an English-language adaptation titled As We See It. That same period included work in The Conductor and Kafula (2018–2020). In 2019 she appeared in Shnot HaShmonim.

Her television credits continued with Yaara Zahri in the 2020 season of Fauda, a show that was broadcast on Israel’s Yes Oh channel and made available internationally on Netflix. In 2021 she was part of the cast of Shtisel, appearing as Shira Levi in the series. Alongside acting, she expanded into hosting, serving as a presenter for the Miss Israel beauty pageant in 2021.

Public profile

Neeman has been featured on magazine and newspaper covers: she appeared on the cover of Menta magazine in 2020 and was featured on the cover of Yedioth newspaper in 2022. She is known for her blue eyes and brown hair and her listed physical measurements include a height of 170 cm (5'7"), weight around 55 kg (121 lbs) and approximate figure measurements of 30-28-34.

Outside of fashion and television, Neeman takes part in charitable and awareness activities. She has participated in initiatives organized by the Israel Cancer Association and in June 2022 featured prominently in a video produced by the organisation to raise awareness about cancer.
