## Family and education

[edit]

Hillel Fuld was born in New York City to an Orthodox Jewish family,[5] where his father, Rabbi Yonah Fuld, served as principal of Salanter Akiba Riverdale Academy. As a teenager, Fuld moved with his family from the United States to Jerusalem, Israel. Fuld graduated with a BA in political science from Bar Ilan University in Tel Aviv.[6] He has spent his career in Israel's high tech industry. Fuld currently resides in Israel with his wife and their five children.[7]

Fuld's older brother, Ari Fuld, was stabbed in the back and killed by a Palestinian terrorist in September 2018 at the Gush Etzion Junction.[8]

## Career

Fuld began blogging while he was working at Comverse Technology, a now defunct telecommunications company, as a technical writer.[9]

Through his blog, Fuld has conducted interviews with influencers and public figures including Marc Andreessen, Gary Vaynerchuk, Guy Kawasaki, Alyssa Milano, and Steve Wozniak.[10][11]

In June 2025, Fuld was barred from visiting Australia after his visa was revoked due to his "Islamophobic rhetoric", according to the Home Affairs Minister, Tony Burke. Fuld was supposed to speak at fundraising events in Sydney and Melbourne hosted by Magen David Adom.[12]
