In late 2009, Charles Robinson was able to interview Peter Joseph, the creator of Zeitgeist: The Movie, Zeitgeist: Addendum, Zeitgeist: Moving Forward, several lectures and a presentation; Founder of The Zeitgeist Movement and a friend of Jack Fresco, in his home.
In what may be a rare interview, he detailed himself and his life.
He was kind enough to provide him with previously unreleased media and videos, and in return Charles did his best to make a documentary (albeit poor in quality compared to his work!) that would help express who that man was who.
Peter Joseph was born into a middle-class family in North Carolina. He said in interviews that his mother’s role as a social worker helped shape his views and impressions of life in America.
He later moved to New York to attend art school. He currently lives and works in New York City as a freelance film editor/composer/producer in various industries.
He withdrew his full name due to the controversial content of his films and a desire to keep his work private.
