Joseph Neibich – Actor | Writer | Director | Performer
Joseph Neibich is not your average entertainer — he’s a powerhouse of talent who has spent decades shaping stories, performing live, and directing award-winning films. His rare ability to move between disciplines with ease has made him a respected figure in both Hollywood and the independent film scene. From comedic stages to film sets, Neibich brings authenticity, energy, and a sharp creative eye to every project he touches.
Hailing from Tucson, Arizona, Joseph’s journey began in Los Angeles in 1997, where he got his start at Paramount Pictures. While his early work was rooted in the business side of entertainment, it didn’t take long for him to pivot toward performance. His breakout included a role in Jerry Maguire and a prolific run of over 40 national commercials — experiences that launched his career as a working actor.
His passion for filmmaking led him to earn a Master’s in Film from the New York Film Academy, further sharpening his storytelling skills. Since then, Joseph has written, directed, and produced multiple shorts, web series, and indie films. His projects have not only entertained audiences, but also earned critical acclaim at global film festivals, taking home awards such as Best Director, Best Short, and Best Film Noir.
One of his latest successes is the horror short LIGHTS OFF, which recently screened at the prestigious Toronto Spring Horror Film Festival. Held at the iconic Revue Cinema in Roncesvalles, the screening was met with enthusiastic praise. The recognition further solidifies Joseph’s position as a filmmaker to watch, particularly in genre storytelling where he blends suspense, emotional depth, and visual flair.
Outside of film, Joseph continues to shine as a stand-up comedian. With performances at legendary venues like the Laugh Factory, Icehouse, and Dangerfield’s, his comedic voice is as sharp as ever. In 2024, he was named Best Comedian in Tucson — a meaningful honor from the city where his story began. Whether it’s a casino crowd, cruise ship audience, or comedy club regulars, Joseph connects with people through humor, heart, and his signature storytelling style.
Joseph’s creative range makes him a sought-after performer and collaborator. While he continues to pursue new projects in film and television, he also freelances in production and supports other artists through mentoring and behind-the-scenes roles. His enduring presence in the industry is a testament to his adaptability, work ethic, and unwavering commitment to craft.
