Tamar Zagursky was born in Beer-Sheva, Israel in 1975 to an Israeli born Engineer father and an American born English teacher and translator mother. She grew up in a small town in the Negev desert and Zagursky served as a tank driver in the Israel army. From 2002 to 2020 she was the Director of Sommer Contemporary Art in Tel-Aviv, one of top galleries in Israel, curating exhibitions and representing the gallery at art fairs all over Europe and the United States. In 2029 she began to manage the studio of Guy Zagursky, a renowned Israeli sculptor and her husband. She also launched SIDDUR, an innovative line of Contemporary Judaica, all designed and produced by Guy.

She and Zuckerman discuss Judaica (ceremonial objects used in Jewish rituals), working with your life partner, organizing a table, female entrepreneurs, courage, contemporary spirituality, the value of awkwardness, and being a working mom in the art world.
