Biography

In the early 2000s, Amir Tibon was a resident of Tel Aviv. In late 2014, Tibon and his wife (then fiancée), Miri, moved to Kibbutz Nahal Oz, following a journalistic visit in August 2014. The couple has two daughters.

On 7 October 2023, Nahal Oz was attacked by Hamas militants while Tibon and his family were at home. They remained in their house's safe room for ten hours until Tibon's father, Noam Tibon, a retired general, arrived from Tel Aviv, along with an Israeli soldier he picked up along the way. Following his rescue, Tibon stated in an article on his experience that "the Israeli state failed us".

On 9 October 2023, Tibon criticized American Senator Josh Hawley for suggesting that American funding for Ukraine be redirected to Israel.

Journalism and literary career

In 2015, Tibon was one of 15 journalists who signed a letter criticizing a proposed policy that would prevent Israel Broadcasting Authority journalists from expressing their opinions on-air. In 2016, Tibon wrote an article critical of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu for Walla. The Prime Minister's Office unsuccessfully pressured the site to remove Tibon's article.

Tibon began working as a Washington correspondent for Haaretz in early 2017, the week of Donald Trump's inauguration. He continued working as a Washington correspondent through 2020.

Tibon co-authored a biography of Mahmoud Abbas, entitled The Last Palestinian: The Rise and Reign of Mahmoud Abbas, which was published in 2017.

Awards and recognition

In January 2015, Tibon and fellow journalist Ben Birnbaum were nominated for a National Magazine Award for their reporting in The New Republic, entitled "How Close They Came".
