Joe Basile is a storyteller, author, filmmaker, podcaster, and creative communicator whose passion for weaving history, faith, mystery, and humor into compelling narratives has captivated audiences across multiple platforms. He is best known for his lead role in the HISTORY Channel documentary The Jesus Strand: A Search for DNA, where his curiosity and engaging presence helped bring an extraordinary investigation to life.
As the youngest of ten children, Joe grew up surrounded by stories. Before long, he became the keeper of those family legends, adding a little more wonder and imagination with every retelling. That love for storytelling evolved into a lifelong mission: helping people laugh, think, hope, and believe in possibilities larger than themselves.
Joe is the author of The Last Scrollkeeper, the first novel in the acclaimed Infinity Chronicles series. What began as a single story quickly became the spark that ignited a vibrant writing career. Through his novels, screenplays, podcasts, videos, and media projects, Joe explores the intersection of adventure, faith, historical intrigue, and the human experience.
Alongside his wife, Lisa, Joe produces radio programs, podcasts, films, and digital content that encourage meaningful conversations and inspire audiences around the world. Together, they have built a creative partnership centered on faith, family, and authentic storytelling.
When he’s not creating his next project, Joe enjoys spending time with his three children, who continue to inspire many of the characters, ideas, and adventures that find their way into his work. Whether through a book, a film, a live presentation, or a podcast, Joe’s goal remains the same: to tell stories that spark imagination, awaken hope, and leave people wondering, “What if it’s possible?”
And as for the millions of characters and stories that have been living in his head since childhood? Joe is still writing them down one story at a time, hoping they’ll eventually give him a little peace and quiet.
