While growing up, his family's travels took him to Asheville, North Carolina, where the family joined the Baha'i faith. It was then back to Michigan and on to the Rio Grande Valley in Southern Texas. <p/>His dream from an early age was to be a Stuntman. After graduating from the University of Texas, Pan American in the Rio Grande Valley, he left for Europe. He had a potential lead where he could get in the Stunt / Film Industry and was not going to miss the opportunity. <p/>Armed with a dream and determination Josh was able to enjoy a successful career as a Stuntman.

Each of the stories are from people who have known Josh Behjat Haggerty. They are family, friends, co-workers, and buddies, men and women, from all walks of life, of varying ages, and from different parts of the world. Some have known him since childhood, others have known him as an adult for many years, and some only a few years. <p/>But the outstanding running theme in each and every one of the stories is a picture of a man who exemplifies kindness, understanding, generosity of spirit, an eagerness to experience life, and a soul who not only lived the human experience, but embraced it to the fullest. <p/>Josh was a member of the Baha'i Faith and lived his life as a man true to his faith.
