Mira Bar-Hillel

Born in Jerusalem, Palestine (British Mandate), Mira Bar-Hillel spent her early career working in radio journalism and current affairs, where she became the country’s first female radio news reporter, before moving to London and joining the Evening Standard. She then transitioned into property and housing work, where she fights for housing and tenants’ rights. She has been recognised in Who’s Who for her leasehold campaign which resulted in changes to the law to give much-needed protections to long leaseholders.
