Dawn Wildsmith was born in Carmel, California, and raised by a beatnik father who owned the Gallery St. Denis art gallery. She began an interest in the arts from a very young age and, by the time she was 12-years-old, had sold her very first painting. In the 1980s, after doing some commercial and print work, she would meet and marry up-and-coming American B-movie director Fred Olen Ray. The two would form the companies Savage Films and A.I.R. during this time, and Dawn would end up appearing in many of the company's horror, action and science fiction releases from 1984 to 1990, beginning with the sci-fi comedy The Adventures of Taura: Prison Ship Star Slammer (1986) (which was filmed in 1984 but not released until several years later). She was cast in both lead and supporting roles; and most often played either tough, take-charge heroines or ruthless, calculating villainess. On occasion, she'd even play a hapless victim, as in the goofy horror comedy The Tomb (1986), where her character was crushed to death after being pushed onto a bed covered in boa constrictors.

In the infamous cult classic Surf Nazis Must Die (1987), Wildsmith's vivid performance as a sexually-insatiable nut-case won her a special "Guilty Pleasure" Award at the Cannes Film Festival. She also had memorable roles in Evil Spawn (1987), playing scientist John Carradine's evil, sardonic assistant (who helps transform an aging, insecure actress into an insectoid monster), and Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers (1988), as a cackling chainsaw hooker who tries to seduce her way out of doing prison time. In the latter, she also designed the makeup that adorns cult queen Linnea Quigley's body during her notorious "Virgin Dance of the Double Chainsaws." Possibly the best and most memorable performance in Dawn's all-too-brief career was playing a trash-talking tough cookie who tries to help David Carradine retrieve his abducted wife in the post apocalyptic action flick Warlords (1988). Other credits include such popular 1980s B flicks as The Phantom Empire (1987), Beverly Hills Vamp (1989) and Wizards of the Demon Sword (1991). She also appeared briefly in Mohammed Rustam's awful alien-vampire opus Evils of the Night (1985) and had an uncredited bit as a club dancer in Larry Cohen's fun killer mutant baby sequel It's Alive III: Island of the Alive (1987).

Dawn received a "Drive In Academy Award" nomination from John Bloom for her performance in Warlords (1988), was voted "Most Working Actress" in Variety magazine that same year and received a Playboy Magazine pictorial proclaiming her "Queen of the B's" a year later. Sadly, at the height of her fame as a B-movie force to be reckoned with, Dawn abruptly left the business and hasn't appeared in another film since the early 1990s. In fact, her last credited appearance in Steve Latshaw's Jack-O (1995) is actually just recycled footage that was filmed in the late 1980s. Said footage was shot to try to entice producers into backing another project called Teenage Exorcist (1991). That project was eventually filmed in 1991, but the role was recast with Brinke Stevens in the lead. As of 2001, Dawn resided in Ashland, Oregon, and was traveling around the country exhibiting her surrealist artwork.

Joel approaches accents in a unique way: Because our brains block us from hearing sounds we don't use in our original accent or language, many people have difficulty hearing and imitating the sounds of a new accent. Joel teaches clients how to make these new sounds, which creates new neural pathways in the brain, allowing the client to feel and hear the new sounds. Once clients begin to recognize the new sounds in themselves, they can start to hear and imitate them in native speakers of the accent, as well as making the vital leap to being able to correct themselves in the new accent. Joel details this process in an interview about accents on David Farrier's Flightless Bird podcast, produced by Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert; his interview begins at about 22:00 minutes into the podcast, and is available on most podcast platforms.

Joel holds a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) degree from the University of California at Irvine.
