Joe Morris Doss

Joe Morris Doss served as the 10th bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Jersey from 1995-2002. He was elected bishop coadjutor in June 1993 and became bishop diocesan in 1995 following the retirement of G. P. Mellick Belshaw.

Doss retired after a tumultuous tenure in that diocese and amidst claims of mismanagement and financial misconduct. He has since written five books, including the 2003 play, Let the Bastards Go: From Cuba to Freedom on "God's Mercy", about a death row inmate he defended in 1984. Prior to serving as bishop in New Jersey, he served parishes in Louisiana and California. He holds a law degree from Louisiana State University.

Doss currently lives with his wife in New Orleans, Louisiana.
