Joe Eszterhas is a writer with the net worth of $18 million. Joe Eszterhas earned his net worth as a reporter for the Plain Dealer, and as a senior editor for Rolling Stone. He has written several screenplays for films, such as Jagged Edge, F.I.S.T., and others, including the hit film Basic Instincts. He is also known for his best sellers, such as, Charlie Simpson's Apocalypse, American Rhapsody and others. He was born in Csakanydoroszlo, Hungary.
J'ozsef A. "Joe" Eszterhas (born November 23, 1944) is a Hungarian-American writer, who has worked on 16 films that have grossed about a billion dollars. He has also written several non-fiction books, including an autobiography entitled Hollywood Animal.
Eszterhas was born in Cs'ak'anydoroszl'o, a small village in Hungary, the son of M'aria (n'ee B'ir'o) and Istv'an Eszterhas. Eszterhas' father was a Roman Catholic newspaper editor and author. Eszterhas learned at age 45 that his father had hidden his collaboration in the Hungarian Nazi government and that he had "organized book burnings and had cranked out the vilest anti-Semitic propaganda imaginable."p.201 He was raised as a young child in a refugee camp in Austria. Eventually his parents moved to New York City, and then to poor immigrant neighborhoods in Cleveland, where he spent most of his childhood.
Eszterhas was a newspaper reporter for The Plain Dealer, in Cleveland, where he gained access to color photos of Vietnam's My Lai Massacre, which depicted American soldiers murdering Vietnamese civilians. Although he was annoyed at his newspaper's apparent lack of belief in the authenticity of the photos, the paper permitted Eszterhas to try to sell them for $125,000. Some media outlets, however, used the photos without permission, causing the photos to decline in value. He ended up receiving only $20,000 from Life magazine.
At the end of Eszterhas' career at The Plain Dealer, a fellow editor singlehandedly sailed a small sail boat from the United States to England and The Plain Dealer did not sponsor the editor's trip. However, as the gentleman neared the culmination of his trip, the Plain Dealer chartered an airplane to fly low and drop "Cleveland Plain Dealer" sweat shirts to the editor. According to the account Eszterhas wrote, the editor retrieved the sweat shirts and when he saw what they were, tossed them overboard. Eszterhas was subsequently relieved of his duties at the newspaper.
