Joel, was born in Cleveland, Ohio, majored in Sociology, but also edited the college newspaper for two years, while participating in the Stage Band on rhythm guitar. he also took several photography and film courses, and had a rock band which performed a version of the rock opera Tommy with the theater department. Joel played 6 and 12-string guitar. He often thought that “Sociology” was interpreted by employers as “Socialism”, and he soon learned that blue-collar and traditional ethnic groups – Jews, Blacks, Italians, Poles, Cubans, etc. were often kinder to me than the WASP establishment.

 For over 30 years, Joel worked in the motion picture special effects industry while fine tuning his own perception about life, spirituality, and his own purpose in this existence. 

 His interest in things beyond the normal senses began when he started taking photographs that included images that were not there when I clicked the shutter.  He have been investigating and documenting the paranormal and vestiges of antiquity when he first realized he had taken a photograph, on film, of an oak tree dryad on sacred Native American land.
