Esti Ginzburg

Currently appearing in the 2011 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue – for the third straight year – Tel Aviv resident Ginzburg started her career with a milk advertisement at age eight, and by 14 had an Elite Models contract. In 2006, she signed a two-year deal with Israeli clothing chain Fox, replacing top model Yael Bar Zohar. A frequent face on the covers of fashion mags such as the French ELLE and the Israel Cosmopolitan, Ginzburg has modeled for Tommy Hilfiger, Burberry, FCUK, Clarins, Pull and Bear and another Israeli fashion chain, Castro.

Ginzburg made her acting debut in the 2010 Joel Schumacher film Twelve and endeared herself to many Israelis for her choice to join the Israel Defense Forces in 2009. A vocal champion of military service, Ginzburg has publicly criticized fellow Israeli supermodel Bar Refaeli for dodging the draft.
