Trained on the news desks of CNN at the United Nations, The Associated Press Jerusalem Bureau and The International New York Times-Haaretz, Tallie’s diverse reporting and editing has run the gamut from breaking news, politics and national security to science, business, lifestyle and the arts. Tallie reported on the aftermath of 9/11 for CNN, the events of the 2002 Second Intifada for the AP and the 2006 Lebanon War and 2008 Gaza War for Haaretz, Israel’s leading daily newspaper, based in Tel Aviv.
In 2009, Tallie’s writing took her to Beijing, China, where she worked for two years as a speechwriter for Israel’s Ambassador to China and freelanced at The China Daily and The Beijinger.
Tallie holds a bachelor’s degree in History from Columbia University and a master’s degree in Development Economics from the London School of Economics and Political Science.
