Hi, I’m Josh! - Author - Producer - Dad

Here's a bit about my journey so far… I was born in Philadelphia and grew up in New Jersey. Even as a kid, I loved telling stories. I also loved comic book heroes, hip-hop, and trying to make people laugh (which occasionally landed me in detention). After graduating from Emerson College in Boston, I spent a year working at Disney World's Magic Kingdom in Orlando (it was magical and humid) before moving to New York City. There, I made my way through a lot of different (and sometimes weird) jobs in film and TV. But I knew I wanted to be a storyteller, which led me to Los Angeles… where I stumbled into animation, and it was a perfect fit! 

Now, more than 20 years later, in addition to being an author, I’m an Emmy-winning animation producer, and I’ve been lucky enough to work on a bajillion episode of TV for kids of all ages. More importantly, I continue to love what I do. Some of the projects I’ve been a part of are Transformers, Paw Patrol, Strawberry Shortcake, Rusty Rivets, Action Pack, Daniel Spellbound, Go, Dog, Go! Magic School Bus, Totally Spies, and many more. I’ve been fortunate to work with companies like Netflix, Nickelodeon, DreamWorks, Disney, Cartoon Network and had the pleasure of working alongside so many great people from all around the world.  

Being a producer and storyteller in animation, and now an author is a total dream job! I believe in the magical power of a good story to inspire young people to do great things. I love that I get to give the gift of laughter to people around the world every day. Whether it’s on the screen or the page, I love building stories that create lasting memories, lift people up, and put good into the world.
