Noa Yedlin is an Israeli author, the recipient of the Sapir Prize (the Israeli Man Booker) and the Levi Eshkol Literature Award and author of the bestselling "House Arrest", "Stockholm", "People Like Us" and "The Wrong Book". Yedlin was named by Haaretz Magazine one of "66 Israeli Women You Should Know".

Yedlin is also the creator of a two-season TV series based on her bestselling novel "Stockholm" (the Israeli Best Mini-Series TV Award). A German remake of the series ("You Don't Die Among Friends") won Best Scripted Format at 2021 International Format Awards and Best European Series at La Rochelle Festival De La Fiction 2021. The series has also been re-made by SVT Sweden (2022). Her adaptation of her bestselling novel "People Like Us" will air in Israel in 2026. A stage adaption of "House Arrest" is now playing at Beit Lessin Theater in Tel Aviv.

Yedlin is considered one of Israel's top writers. Her novels – widely known for their dark and subtle humor - sketch with biting precision the complex relationships both within the family and outside of it, while capturing and deconstructing the spirit of the times. Yedlin deals with global phenomena that infiltrate the personal realm and shape our everyday lives - the rise and fall of social elites, shifts in the balance of power and the never-ending battle between individualism and conformism.

Noa Yedlin was born and raised in Tel Aviv. She studied BA (1996-1999) and MA (2000-2002) in East Asian Studies in The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In the 1990s and up until 2013 she worked as a journalist and senior editor for several Israeli newspapers. She has been teaching creative writing in Israel (Ben-Gurion University in Beer-Sheva, Beit Ariela central public library in Tel Aviv).

She lives in Tel Aviv, married to Doron Nachum and has two children.
