About The Author
Joseph Anthony
Joseph Anthony (Author)
Joseph Patrick Anthony was born the tenth of eleven children. His family loved the mountains, so exploring with his brothers and sisters nurtured an innate love for adventure and an appreciation for the natural world. He traveled with the Navy as a trumpet player, worked in a natural food store, as a Corrections Officer, a massage therapist, and a construction supervisor, experiences which have all served to deepen his self-understanding and perspective on the human condition. Joseph’s cosmological work, “Our Multi-Tiered Universe,” grew out of a desire to help move the planet to a clean energy future.
