- Birth nameJoseph Paull Sinko
- Joey Sinko was born on March 3, 1986 in Los Angeles, California, USA. He is a director and editor, known for A Letter to Marty (2012), Not Now John (2012) and A Very Grimm Christmas (2014).
- Attends Robert F. Lyons acting class.
- Is part Jewish on his mother's side and Italian from his father's side.
- "Where Moth's Fly," a short film where he played the lead, was selected at seven film festivals worldwide, among them: Santa Barbara International Film Festival, and L.A. Fear & Fantasy International Film Festival where it won for 'Best Short.'.
- He wrote and directed his first short film "A Letter to Marty," loosely weaving real life events. He plays his alter ego, John Grimm, an actor who skipped his own movie premiere for "Where Moths Fly," and successfully meets his favorite master of cinema Martin Scorsese instead. The film is a heartfelt homage to cinematic poetry and the philosophy that results from it.
- He starred as Ned Malloy in the film Exorcism, a character conceived by playwright Eugene O'Neill after his own suicide attempt. The film went on to win a regional Emmy.
- The mark of a good actor is letting the flaws roll out.
- I try and present myself as person first and foremost. I feel that quality this day and age can really bring something to any role. After all, movies are about people and the human condition, not about how valuable or outgoing you think you are as an actor.
