Mirav Ozeri

Mirav Ozeri grew up in Jerusalem, Israel, served in the Israeli army, and earned her bachelor’s degree in photography before moving to New York City. As a brand-new immigrant determined to build a life in America, she opened a fruit & vegetable stand in Harlem just steps from the iconic Apollo Theater. The stand thrived, but after two years Mirav felt pulled back toward her passion for storytelling and journalism.

She launched her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing projects for political groups and nonprofits including the Alcoholism Council, the Correctional Association, and the Anti-Defamation League. Her work soon led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her time at CBS, Mirav produced a TV pilot—an early version of the podcast she hosts today. The pilot wasn’t picked up, but the idea never left. Years later, her passion for journalism brought it back to life as a podcast named “How Much Can I Make?”.
