Siri Jones-Rosen is a retired hotel receptionist who held a variety of jobs both in and apart from the tourist industry: secretary, translator, switchboard operator, movie extra, port tallywoman, telex operator (Israel America Chamber of Commerce, before fax machines), Las Vegas cage [casino] cashier, and blueprint operator at WED Enterprises - the company that designed and built Disneyland. She met her husband Emanuel when he re-founded his FDA consulting service (EARE) in Eilat in 1987; they were together until his death in 2008.

Semi-retired, she worked part-time at the SPNI Eilat Field School for seven years until 2017.

Siri made aliyah at age 12 with her father Frank, directly from Hollywood to Eilat, in 1965. Though not Jewish at the time, they both fell in love with Israel, the country, the people and Eilat. She is still very happy to have spent her life here.
