northern Idaho.
Workosky is a published
writer, photographer and videographer. His photos, articles, book and magazine
covers have been published nationwide. Workosky has also produced dozens of industrial videos
and television commercials, in addition to "Taxidermy
Trails" a television series cablecast to national and
international audiences on The
Outdoor Channel.
Joe
Workosky has been writing about environmental issues, boating,
camping, outdoor travel, and hunting and fishing topics, for more than
20 years.
Workosky wrote feature articles for a Johnstown, PA newspaper
for more than 15 years and was also on the masthead of several other
outdoor publications as photographer, regional editor and monthly columnist.
Workosky
combined his outdoor writing and video talents during the production of
"Taxidermy Trails". The television show was conceived by Workosky and
associate Dan
Bantley while on a wilderness hunting trip in 2001.
Workosky often
photographed these outings for his magazine and newspaper work, but on this trip
their talk turned to television.
This combination of talents, Workosky and
Bantley, began in 1978 when Workosky first interviewed Bantley
for a series of newspaper articles. After the initial series of
articles and photos were
published, the men worked on several more newspaper and magazine
stories featuring hunting and fishing trips combined with taxidermy topics.
Workosky has worked as a full-time
communications expert since the mid 1970s and has published more than
100 magazine articles and dozens of magazine covers. He has produced
outdoor articles, with supporting photography, for newspapers and other periodicals.
Workosky
has created paintings, illustrations and drawings of wildlife and
outdoor scenes which have appeared on the covers of several state, regional and
national magazines.
Throughout his freelance career he was employed by a major PA electric utility corporation as
a company communications spokesperson.
In this corporate environment, he excelled as an award- winning
industrial video
director, editor and script writer. Workosky produced dozens of industrial training programs, employee
video magazines and live downlink programming to corporate offices
throughout the Northeast.
