Joseph Angelo (Joe) Dallesandro (born December 31, 1948 in Pensacola, Florida) is an American actor known for his voluptuous physical beauty, on-screen nudity and openly stated bisexuality. Although he never became a major mainstream star, he is generally considered to be the most famous male sex symbol of American underground films of the late 20th century. As well as beauty, his on-screen presence has a compelling enigmatic quality. This derives from what often seems (especially in his Warhol films) a bored or surly withholding, and almost comical physical inertia.

As a teenager, Dallesandro supported himself by nude modeling and prostitution, and working in gay pornography films. At times he slept with men for pay "because I could deal with that better." He met Andy Warhol and Paul Morrissey in 1967 while they were in the midst of shooting The Loves of Ondine, and they cast him in the film on the spot.
