Today
Hostetler and his wife, Susan Crehan Hostetler, live on a 40-acre (160,000 m2) farm outside Athens, Ohio during the winter months and in Nantucket, Mass., during the summer, where they own a gallery and where he plays drums in his own jazz band.
His long time appreciation of the great Jewish philosophers has inspired his interest in the Jewish faith, philosophy and way of life, and at the age of 69, Hostetler began studying to convert to Judaism.
At age 78, Hostetler embarks on a new direction in his woodcarving that is inspired by the Anasazi American Indians of the southwest. Painting combined with sculptures are another avenue he is exploring.
