Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, Joseph fell in love with acting when his dreams of becoming a professional baseball player never materialized. After college he was introduced to his acting teacher and mentor Robert X. Modica. Mr. Modica  taught him everything he needed to know about being a fine actor and human being. After a brief stint in LA, Joseph came back home and founded the Natural Theatre Group, where he produced and starred in countless off-Broadway plays across NYC. "Halloween," by Leonard Melfi @ the Lambs Theatre,  "Rockaway Boulevard," by Richard Viteri @ the Acorn Theatre and "Lobby Hero," by Kenneth Lonagan @ The Atlantic Theatre Group are among the few. Most recently he co-starred as Agent Richardson in King of Paper Chasin which can be seen on Show Time on Demand. Other credits include Law&Order, As The World Turns and Rescue me.
