Joseph Bauer is a 15th generation member of one of Switzerland’s oldest circus families. Bauer has his roots embedded in the circus arts; his father came to the United States to perform in 1954, and since then, his Swiss family has called Sarasota home. Tonight, Bauer shows his skills as Ringmaster as well as daredevil on the challenging, 50-foot whirling Wheel of Destiny.

Bauer began performing at a young age when he joined the family daredevil act, The Fabulous Fearless Bauers. As a teenager, he was featured in a many thrilling acts including the motorcycle on the incline wire, skywalks on the high wire, the death-defying 90 foot swaypole and the challenging, 50-foot whirling Wheel of Destiny.

He is the father to Amber Bauer, who is also in tonight's show with her beautiful Liberty horses.
