Joseph Lovett

Writer, Director, Producer

In his long career producing for ABC News, CBS News, HBO, PBS and Discovery, Peabody Award winner Joseph Lovett has produced and/or directed over 35 hours of primetime television programming and 7 feature documentaries. 

Joe is known for tackling difficult issues with skilled storytelling and empathetic interviews to bring needed attention to public health issues and taboo subjects such as Cancer, AIDS, ALS, Vision Loss.  Joe has also been willing to include himself in his films as an interested interlocutor rather than as a “dispassionate journalist.” This technique allows him to be a willing guide for his viewers as he asks the questions and ferrets out the information his viewers need. Joe’s acclaimed documentaries “Cancer: Evolution to Revolution” (HBO, Peabody Award, Emmy Nomination) and “Going Blind: Coming out of the Dark about Vision Loss” (PBS) are drawn from his own experience with his family members’ cancers and his own personal vision loss. 

Joe’s first feature film “The Accident” is a Rashomon style story of Joe’s family. Joe’s father died a very painful death from cancer when Joe was nine and his mother was killed in a freak car accident which he was part of when he was thirteen.  “The Accident” was the first of Joe’s films where, working to understand the effects of his own grief and ability to process, he chose to expose his own vulnerability in a manner that allows others to explore theirs.  It was made over 25 years.

“Something Terrible Happened to Joey” takes Joe’s own childhood traumas and abstracts them into “a terrible thing” which any child might have experienced in their life such as Abuse, Divorce, Disability, Separation, Illness. The film honors the child’s sadness, models behavior for friends who might not know what to do, and gives hope showing that with time, friends, and self- examination, an interrupted life can become whole and viable.
