I'm a Cinemajunkie !
I only remeber seeing this guy one time on a varitey show singin 1970's.
It doesn't say much about his carear.
I wonder did Joey and other Travoltas feed off of Jons FAME.
I looks like it didn't work to well for him. -

Dear Steve:
You could not be more wrong about him!! I know Joey personally(he has been a guest in my home on several occasions) and have worked with him on a special film project. He seldom if ever brings up his brother's name and is a very successful man in his own right. He is a devoted husband and father and his priorities, principles and values are central to his life. He is extremely talented in many areas and makes a good living without trading off his brother's name. Joey also has a wonderful, compassionate heart and does a tremendous amount of work for developmentally disabled children and adults.
Granted, he is not as famous or as wealthy as John, but how many earning a living in Hollywood are? I just wanted to right the record. Joey Travolta is a fine person in every respect and I wish more people in the entertainment industry had his integrity and morality.

I can not argue with what you wrote. Joey sounds like a really good person with a good heart. I'll beat he has a lot of good stories. Plus does not have to be as isolated as (I hear) his brother John. What kind of film projects is he into ?
Sincerely
Steve

Hi Steve:
Joey does special interest documentaries including biographical films about fascinating people who "fly under the radar screen." He is working on one such film as we speak. He really is a great guy and I think that you would really like him. He will probably never be as famous or wealthy as his brother but I don't think that is what drives him. He wants to make a differnce and does not need traditional fame to do it. When I get more specifics I'll let you know.
I think the IMDb site lists his films, or at least the one's that he has appeared in as an actor. He is also a good singer and song writer.
Take care.

Michael,
Thank you so much for giving us insight into Joey Travolta.
As a young teen in the late 70's I had huge crushes on both John and Joey Travolta. There was even a time that I liked Joey a little better. They are both a part of my youth and I look back on those times fondly.
Thanks again for letting us know about Joey. I love to hear that celebrities I admire are good people in "real life".
Take care!!
Sally
