Joan As Police Woman - The Deep Field. Joan Wasser. Biography[edit] Early Life[edit] Born at the Saint Andre Home in Biddeford, Maine,[2] to an unmarried teenage mother, Wasser was given up for adoption at infancy.[3] She was raised in Norwalk, Connecticut, with her adoptive younger brother, Dan who is an artist.[4] She credits her background as an adoptive child with her 'very extroverted' personality and dressing up a lot. She explained that 'when you are in a situation where you're not blood-related to your family, it does become extremely obvious that you're born with your personality'.[5] Wasser began piano lessons at age six, before starting her first violin lessons at age eight. She played violin in school and community orchestras before leaving Norwalk for her college studies.
Instead she joined a number of local punk bands trying 'to bridge the gap between the guitar and the bass and play the violin really loud'.[3] Dambuilders[edit] Black Beetle[edit] Joan As Police Woman[edit] To Survive[edit] Releases[edit] Albums[edit] EPs[edit] Joan Wasser.
