RUTH SHAMIR was born in Poland, saved by a miracle, and arrived at the age of 3 in Palestine in 1939 after the outbreak of the Second World War. Her maternal family was destroyed by the Nazis.
She grew up in Israel and served in the military. She attended Hebrew University in Jerusalem and received a scholarship in 1957 to attend Southern Illinois University where she obtained her B.A. Upon graduation, she moved to Los Angeles and attended Southwestern Law School.

In 1964, she was admitted to the California Bar and started practicing immigration law—founding a law firm with her husband, Richard C. Popkin, who became a civil law litigator. Ruth Shamir became one of the early members of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, and won recognition in handling a variety of immigration cases, particularly earning accolades for handling cases of Filipino veterans who were entitled to U.S. citizenship but had been denied by the U. S. government. Thousands of Filipino veterans won their U.S. citizenship on account of the court decision.

Popkin and Shamir’s law firm expanded and opened subsidiary offices in Hong Kong and Manila, assisting individuals, business people and investors to obtain legal status in the U.S.

The firm has handled all types of immigration and nationality cases over the years. Throughout her career, Ruth Shamir has published articles relating to U.S. immigration issues.

In 2007, Shamir completed a Masters Degree program in Cultural Studies at Claremont Graduate University in Southern California. By 2010, she completed all the requirements for a Ph.D. in Cultural Studies, including a dissertation that is now being considered for publication.

Ruth Shamir has also published two books: The Chinese Galaxy (published in Israel in 1977), and All My Vows (published in 1982)

Active in Jewish and Israeli affairs, she is a member of the board of directors of the Museum of the Jewish Diaspora in Tel Aviv, Israel, and is on the board of American Friends of Beth Hatefutsoth in the U.S.

Ruth and Richard Popkin are members and contributors to the Founders of the Los Angeles Music Center, and are contributors to the Los Angeles Opera, Center Theater Group and the Geffen Theater in Los Angeles. They are also benefactors of the John Wayne Cancer Research Center. In Israel, the couple contributes to the Tel Aviv Philharmonic and the Israeli Opera.

Ruth is a member of the International Women’s Forum and is a contributor to organizations supporting families with adoption issues.

As an attorney, Ruth Shamir continues to represent clients with immigration issues, strongly believing that individuals who desire to live legally in the U.S. should be able to do so. The firm actively supports all efforts to pass an Immigration Reform Act to alleviate the plight of the illegal aliens and enable qualified individuals to immigrate and enrich the American economy.
