Nora Arnezeder is a French actress and singer. Her father, Wolfgang Arnezeder, is Austrian (and Catholic). Her mother, Piera (Schinasi), is an Egyptian Jew. Her mother is from the Italian Jewish Schinasi family, a Sephardi family from Livorno, Tuscany. Nora’s great-grandparents moved to Alexandria before WWI.
A relative of hers is painter Daniel Schinasi.

Sephardi Jews whose ancestors hail from the Middle East and North Africa consider themselves as Mizrahi Jews as well.
Add that ‘Mizrahi Jewish’ tag.
No that’s not accurate, her ancestors originate from the iberian penisula which is Spain and Portugal. There would be an inception if her mothers ancestors settled in the Maghreb region of North Africa or the Middle east. But, that’s not the case since Italy is in Europe.
Either way I think it should her ‘Ethnicity’ should be updated to this:
*mother: Sephardi Jewish (from Egypt and Italy)
if she is of Egyptian-Jewish descent it means she’s also of Mizrahi Jewish heritage
Read the profile better
yet a Jew, espeially Sephardic Jews who have lived in any Muslim-Arab country (such as Egypt) for several genrations are automatically considered of Mizrahi Jewish background
Several generations? Her mother’s family is from Livorno, Italy.
Nora’s great-grandparents moved to Alexandria (Egypt) before WWI (before 1914).
That means hers (1st generation), her mother (2nd generation), her grandmother (3rd generation), and her great-grandmother (4th generation), and perhaps even another ancestor of that lineage.
I guess they still are Sephardic.
