Nina Brosh Biography

Nina Brosh (born November 12, 1975) is an Israeli model and actress. Nina was born in Ramat Yishai, Israel to a Jewish Russian father & Chinese mother. She was discovered while sleeping on a park bench in Tel-Aviv. At the time, she was a homeless & penniless runaway. A photographer noticed her and offered her assistance in exchange for the opportunity to take pictures of her. Weeks later, Nina's image was plastered all over the city.

Nina and her representation began looking for broader success, first going to New York, and then finally finding real success in Paris. She began to appear on runways, magazine editorials, and advertisements, working with brands such as Evian, Byblos, and Givenchy.

Some people think her tattoos have hindered her career. They are often either airbrushed out of photos or covered with makeup for runway shows. Nina has recently declared semi-retirement from modelling. She has moved back to Israel and settled into a villa in the wealthy city of Kfar Smaryahu. There, with her boyfriend Assi Salev, she has begun a family. She has also been putting energy into re-educating herself, focusing on a possible medical career.

In 1995 Nina was voted the 79th "Most Powerful Person in Fashion" by The Face magazine. In 1998 she appeared opposite Vincent Gallo in the independent movie Hollywood Salome, though rumours of links to high profile projects such as The Fifth Element and Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace have all fallen through. She is currently in semi-retirement.
