Description
Welcome to Episode 4! Episodes 4 and 5 feature Joseph Griffo. Joseph is a 4’4” actor and stuntman who frequently doubles Peter Dinklage in movies. He had to endure some pretty rough times growing up in the 1950s and 1960s because of his dwarfism. Joseph talks about the path to finally accepting himself and also describes some of the dangerous ways he’s made a living in the entertainment industry: working with fire, being dropped on wires, and wearing all types of creature costumes, just to name a few.
