Joseph Sisko;. Gourmet chef and proprietor of a Creole restaurant "Explorers" called Sisko's in New Orleans on Earth.

Joseph Sisko was the devoted father of several children, including Starfleet officer Benjamin Sisko and his sister Judith. Joseph taught his children the importance of family and how to cook. He was a headstrong man who in later years tended to neglect his health. He developed progressive arteriosclerosis, eventually necessitating that he be given a new aorta. Sisko refused to comply in 2372 when security measures ordered by President Jaresh-Inyo required family members of key Starfleet officers to submit to blood screening tests. "Homefront".

In June 2331, Joseph Sisko met a woman named Sarah at Jackson Square in New Orleans. The two fell in love and were married in August 2331. Sarah Sisko gave birth to Benjamin in 2332. Their marriage of two years ended when Sarah left her husband Joseph two days after Ben's first birthday in 2333. Joseph looked for her for years, finally learning that she had died in 2336. Joseph later remarried, but he never told his son, Benjamin, about his mother's true identity. Joseph told Ben that his second wife was Ben's mother. "Image in the Sand".

In 2374, Joseph left Earth for the first time. He journeyed to station Deep Space 9 to visit his son Benjamin and his grandson, Jake. "Far Beyond the Stars".
