Joe Lee's pen has captured the harrowing resilience of a Holocaust survivor in stark black and white, but today, we turn the page to a different chapter of his life—one painted in the vibrant colors of joy and jest. Welcome back to Hometown History, where we revisit the remarkable life of Joe Lee, not just as the author behind 'Forgiveness: The Story of Eva Kor, Survivor of the Auschwitz Experiments,' but as a man who embraced the ancient art of clowning. In this episode, we peel back the layers of a profession often shrouded in mystery and mirth to reveal the rich tapestry of history and humanity within the world of clowning.

From his professional training to the moments that laughter bridged gaps between souls, Joe shares with us how the craft of clowning is woven into the fabric of human experience. It's a journey that juxtaposes the profound depth of chronicling the darkest facets of history with the lightness of bringing smiles to faces young and old. Join us for this and other untold stories that color our understanding of the human experience at itshometownhistory.com. Here, every smile tells a story, and every story holds a world of emotion.
