Joe Powell | Trauma and Addiction in Show Business


Listen Later

Joe Powell was surrounded by an addiction-filled world from a young age. He was born and raised in Harlem, New York. Joe recalls that his parents had eight children—seven boys and one girl. All of them worked as performers. He recall tap dancing with The Jackson 5, Sammy Davis Jr., and Frank Sinatra. When he was four years old, he appeared on television. The Ted Mack Amateur Hour was a program that aired on CBS. Of course, there is a lot of drinking and drugs in the entertainment industry. His father would get drunk and do his entire act. Being raised in a home with an alcoholic father and experiencing that kind of trauma affected him long term.----Across the Web----
