Natalie Portman was born in Jerusalem, but was raised in New York. She attended Jewish school while growing up, citing that the religion has always been important to her. Her husband began the process of conversion after they got married. Portman said:  “A priority for me is definitely that I’d like to raise my kids Jewish, but the ultimate thing is to have someone who is a good person and who is a partner.”
