For the second night of Hanukkah, our Jewish honey is none other than Jamie-Lynn Sigler,
known best for her HBO role as precocious daughter to psychotic and misunderstood mob boss Tony Soprano. She slid effortlessly and convincingly into the part, perhaps because it was so natural for her - nice Jewish girl that she is - to play a role that involved attending NYU and preparing for a life as a lawyer....Jamie-Lynn recently rediscovered her Jewishness:
During January 2008, Sigler visited Israel through th
e Birthright Israel program and subsequently was moved by the trip, calling Israel "one of the most beautiful, inspiring places I've ever been to." She further noted that the trip gave her a greater understanding to preserve her Jewish identity and, after talks with Israeli soldiers who were also participants on the trip, she expressed solidarity towards the efforts of the young soldiers...Good for you, Jamie Lynn. And good for us as well:
