Amit Cohen is a writer/producer currently based in the US. Cohen
co-created and wrote the acclaimed Israeli series False Flag, which
Apple is now remaking. Cohen’s next series, No Man’s Land,
co-penned with his regular writing partner, Ron Leshem, is coming up
on Hulu and Arte. The show was co-created with Maria Feldman and Eitan
Mansuri and directed by Oded Ruskin (False Flag).

Together with Leshem, Cohen created and co-wrote The Gordin Cell
(adapted into English-language series Allegiance by NBC Universal) as
well as the war series Valley of Tears, which is Israel’s
biggest-budget TV show. From 2002-2012 Amit worked as an Arab affairs
correspondent and commentator for Maariv, one of Israel’s most
influential newspapers. He was mostly on the field, moving between
Gaza Strip, the West Bank and Arab countries, covering major events
such as the Palestinian Intifada, the death of Yasser Arafat, the
Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and its takeover by Hamas, as well as the
“Arab Spring” and its implications.
