Biography

Put together the flying abilities of Superman, the geeky tech gadgets of Batman and the mind-reading abilities of Charles Xavier, and what do you have?

The greatest superhero of all time?

You'd have Joe Van Wie, CEO of JVW Inc.

Ok, well maybe he doesn't actually have those superpowers (give it a few years though and see what happens), but when it comes to the art of filmmaking, superhero doesn't even begin to cover what he's accomplished or what he's capable of.

Following a spirited and notorious adolescence in Northeastern Pennsylvania, Joe did at stretch a New York University and ended up spending nearly a decade in New York City as an accomplished part of the city's lively film and TV industry. During this time he racked up credits ranging from producing feature films premiering at International Film Festivals to directing and producing content for a variety of national cable television networks.

In his spare time, he enjoys poker, mountain biking, skiing, snowboarding, going boating and flying. Since he can't fly like Superman (yet), he's keeping himself busy by becoming becoming a private pilot.

The most influential people in his life? Personally, his mother tops the list, and professionally, it's a tie between Marlon Brando and Robert Evans.

Where does he see himself in 1 year?

Positioning JVW Inc. as one of the top film production companies in the country.

5 years?

Having made multiple successful and award-winning films.

10 years?

Retiring, having an island and a private plane while maintaining his multiple successful businesses part time and using his skill sets to be a great philanthropist. And maybe manipulating science and technology to make his superhero aspirations a reality...
