Woody Allen – Jewish
Allen Stewart Konigsberg, professionally known as Woody Allen, was born to a Jewish family in the Bronx, NY. Although his family is Orthodox, according to the Times of Israel, Allen is ambivalent about his Jewish identity and tends to show it in his films, in some of which he pokes fun at his family and religious upbringing, including Annie Hall in 1977 and Crimes and Misdemeanors in 1989.
